About Me
During my time at Oberlin, I was a member of Nothing But Treble and OSteel. I served as the director for Nothing But Treble my junior and senior years, and served as a director for OSteel during my senior year. Three of my four years at Oberlin I worked as the Reserve and Media Assistant in the Main Library, and also as a Preparations Assistant in the Conservatory Library. My first year at Oberlin I worked as a line server/smoothie and sandwich maker in Dascomb and Decaf(back when there were still tables in Decaf! I also taught the Steel Pan, Beginning Swing, and Beginning Blues ExCos for a few semesters. I found amazing communities and wonderful friendships within these organizations, met new people teaching the ExCos, and had an incredible network of support among the library staff!
Study Abroad
Fall 2018 I spent the semester doing research at the Newberry Library in Chicago.
