Professional Background:
I am an educational technology consultant who works with faculty members and academic units to effectively plan, implement, and evaluate the innovative use of instructional technologies. I serve as staff liaison between the Center for Faculty Excellence and the Teaching and Learning division of Information Technology Services. Recent areas of interest include innovation in faculty development, learning space design, and large course redesign. 

I hold a Master of Information Science degree and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and have taught undergraduate and graduate courses for the UNC School of Information and Library Science. I have fifteen years of experience supporting faculty members and campus initiatives across a wide range of topics related to educational technology.
