About

As an MLIS student at Pratt Institute, my professional journey is driven by a passion for preserving music and its stories. With over five years of experience in data accuracy, content systems, and quality assurance, my work spans metadata and cataloging support, records and digital archives, and special collections care. My skillset includes rights management, research skills, and archival description, enabling me to contribute to the stewardship of music and performing arts materials. My mission is to ensure long-term access to cultural artifacts through consistent description, clean metadata, and clearly documented workflows. Volunteering at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts has deepened my commitment to meticulous record-keeping and systems that enhance discoverability. I thrive in methodical environments, leveraging my ability to learn software quickly and produce detailed documentation that facilitates seamless collaboration and handoffs.
