About

I am a highly experienced research and outreach librarian, who has worked in US and UK research universities, including The Ohio State University and the University of Nottingham. I also spent four years working as an outreach librarian at IFIS Publishing, the publisher of the database FSTA, Food Science and Technology Abstracts. In that role I supported and trained food science researchers, as well as the librarians who support them, across the globe. I am currently subject liaison at the University of Iowa for physics, astronomy, mathematics, and statistics.
