Master of Arts in Library
and Information Science
ABOUT ME
Kind Librarian, Writer, and Information Specialist
It makes perfect sense that I finally pursued a Master of Arts degree in Library and Information Science. I adore being a student. I love learning, studying, researching, and writing. To be around scholars, historians, educators, writers, and inspirational people who are also driven by knowledge, community engagement, and information sharing has always been my dream. I am continuing to fulfill it.
​
My house and my life are full of books. I love reading and sharing that love with others. My passions and hobbies all center around being outdoors and spending time with my family. I try to get to the beach, walk my dog, and spend time reading, writing, and developing my spiritual gratitude daily. I plan to write at least one book, start a business, and change the world with kindness.
​
Life is amazing and I am incredibly grateful. I have loved this graduate school experience so much, I may return for my doctoral degree one day. Enjoy my e-portfolio. It was fun, time consuming, and very rewarding to look back, look forward, and finally have the chance to stop and reflect, appreciate, and love this moment now.

Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.
