Bio

As the Program Manager for Evalution and Assessment, and member of the PLA data team, I support the work of Project Outcome, Benchmark, and the association's other survey and data work. Prior to PLA, I was the Statistical Research Analyst at Mid-Continent Public Library, where I spent my time examining statistics, demographics, and program survey results from the library’s 35 locations to support their data-driven decision making. My library career began as the State Data Coordinator at the Missouri State Library, working with the IMLS and Census Bureau to collect and distribute statistics for the state, and train users on how to make the most of those data.

Prior to my work with libraries, I worked in Marketing for a women's health-focused pharmaceutical company; with my first post-graduate employ as the national program evaluator of the Families and Schools Together (FAST) program.
