Training and Workshops

I am an experienced teacher and trainer and greatly enjoy designing and leading innovative and impactful learning experiences for diverse audiences. I’m particularly interested in supporting fellow librarians and educators in their work through workshops and other professional development offerings and opportunities. Currently, I am an instructor with ALA and Library Juice Academy.

My teaching and training experiences include online, in-person, and hybrid offerings, as well as synchronous and asynchronous offerings. I have designed and led everything from semester-long classes to one-shot library instruction sessions and from all-day in-person professional development workshops to asynchronous online classes.
