I am the Director of Digital Initiatives for the Missouri History Museum in St. Louis. I have worked in the museum field for over a decade and hold a doctorate in American Studies, specializing in visual culture. In my current position, I work in a very fluid environment—creating and disseminating content online, researching best practices among museums and cultural heritage institutions, promoting public engagement with museum collections, working with colleagues to set policy for digitization and the collecting of community archives, and conceptualizing multi-media/technology projects.
