About Me: My background is in English Literature focusing on 20th and 21st century African American literature and Culture. My interests have shifted away from primary text and more into the surrounding issues of scholarship publication and citation for authors and researchers who identify as part of a racial or ethnic minority. Additionally, my research interests include Afrofuturism, digital humanities, open access, and the application of graphic novel and comic format in promoting information literacy pedagogy.

Conflict of Interest Statement: i am employed as Humanities Librarian at IUPUI. I also adjunct for IUPUI's Africana Studies, as well as School of Education.
