About Me

I am a student success librarian who is focused on holistically supporting students in their journey through higher education and creating space for critical conversations around emerging technologies that shape how we interact with each other and information. I’m interested in AI ethics, data literacy & data dignity, learner-centered instructional design, and critical pedagogy. I was a librarian and teacher in LA for eight years, but originally from the east coast — glad to be back! I have a background in religious studies and full stack web development. Always down to colab! HMU

Library Peer Ambassadors Library Peer Ambassadors

The Library Peer Ambassador program is a student-led, student-centered cohort designed to cultivate belonging, professional development, and intellectual curiosity for both cohort members and the students the cohort serves. The cohort collaborates with and is facilitated by BMCC Librarians. We aim to innovate library programs and services, namely in the following three areas: hospitality, outreach, and knowledge creation. This site extends our work in these areas and creates opportunity for the broader BMCC student community to engage and learning about the Library Peer Ambassador program.
