I'm an archivist/librarian and GLAM enthusiast committed to promoting access to all information and remaining a neutral party while doing so. I’m interested in facilitating connections between GLAMs, Wikipedia, and Wikipedians whenever possible. I like to write about art, history, and notable women. You will often find me cleaning up articles, particularly improving reference sections and adding relevant wikilinks.

Conflict of interest statement

I am a paid employee of the Ela Area Public Library and I work to improve articles about Lake Zurich, Illinois, history on Wikipedia. When I am editing Wikipedia as part of my professional duties, I always strive to abide by Wikipedia’s guidelines on COI, neutrality, and notability. If you have any questions about edits I make, Lake Zurich-related or otherwise, please leave a message on my talk page.
