Hello! I am an Associate Professor in the School of Information Sciences at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. I teach and conduct research on metadata, information organization, digital libraries, digital preservation, museum informatics, and the access to and use of visual information. Prior to my appointment at Wayne State University I performed archaeological fieldwork, taught art history, and had a lengthy career in academic visual resources collections. My research has been published in scholarly journals, including the Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, Journal of Documentation, Journal of Academic Librarianship, Knowledge Organization, and Art Documentation, and I have presented at regional, national, and international conferences. In addition to a Doctor of Philosophy in Information Studies at Drexel University, I hold a Master of Science in Library and Information Science degree in the management of digital information from Drexel University, a Master of Arts in art history from Temple University, and a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in art history from Massachusetts College of Art.
