I am a conservator of rare books, paper, and parchment with an MLIS/CAS in Conservation and Preservation of Library and Archival Materials from the University of Texas at Austin and an AB in Anthropology from Bryn Mawr College. I am a Professional Associate member of the American Institute for Conservation (AIC), as well as a member of the International Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (IIC) and International Association of Book and Paper Conservators (IADA). I am the AIC-Book and Paper Group Publications Chair. I have a website.

My research interests include preservation, conservation-restoration, library and information science, art history, archaeology, and cultural anthropology and particularly how they can enhance and engage fellowship among allied professionals and researchers.

I am new to wikis and am kicking the tires to test this out.
