Role in the Library
My role is to connect people with the resources, spaces, services, and technology that will help them with their research. I supervise a department responsible for Special and Digital Collections, collection development, scholarly communications, Open Access, GIS, and research data management.
More About
I'm passionate about technology, data, ethics and their impact on how people interact with information and with each other. My research area is in critical data studies and I'm currently the Director of the Data to Policy Project (D2P), an initiative to engage students with community needs through course-based assignments, which culminate into equitable and data-driven policy proposals to local governments and agencies. Participants explore issues in policing and affordable housing in Denver.
