I have an MLIS and am specializing in digital archives and presently continue to work part-time as an intern at a state institution. I have a small conservation and scanning lab in my home and am in the process of developing a website for my own business. I am interested in full-time work as a digital archivist and enjoy learning about and using new technology.

In my past career I worked as an antitrust paralegal and have always worked with large collections in a DAMS of some sort. I retain a keen interest in how my professional community will address the issues that come with the preservation of born digital media in collections. As a litigation paralegal, I worked with computer forensics and electronic discovery and feel there is a need to discuss and address all the issues for the preservation of born digital media for museums and archives.
