Over 5 years of experience working within a busy public library setting. I perform regular circulation and reference services while overseeing a variety of back end technical services.

• Developing and marketing multiple adult and teen programs to promote creativity and community building.
• Supervising part-time circulation staff while providing training and mentorship to new staff. members.

During 2024 I completed a 120-hour internship at the UConn Avery Point library over the course of 4 months. In this time, I oversaw various projects focused on providing access and resources for the student community.

• Curated and budgeted a special collection of outdoor equipment which was approved for funding by the university.
• Managed a extensive weeding project resulting in the removal of over 500 outdated resources.
• Coordinated multiple library programs focused on increasing student engagement, awareness, and access on campus.
