Hi there! I'm a graduate student pursuing my MSIS at the University of Texas at Austin School of Information with an interest in UX design, Archives, and instructional design.
My favorite part about any work environment is learning about new ideas and technologies, and discovering how they can be used to create efficient
and sustainable systems.
I work at the School of Information as a Teaching Assistant (TA) in the IT Lab, creating instructional technology content and project managing for our team of twelve TAs. I also work as a Digital Asset Management librarian for Dell, coordinating with global teams to achieve maximum efficiency and findability.
My B.A. in English with minors in Business Administration and Communication from Texas A&M University in my hometown of College Station, Texas developed my skills at writing and communicating.
In my spare time, I enjoy writing historical fiction, researching family genealogy, and learning new software.
