Professional Development for Your Library
Teaching is a true passion of mine. I also have a background in it, having focused my undergrad on Secondary Education, and was employed as Adjunct Professor at St. Catherine University's Graduate School of Library and Information Science in 2022. Whatever your group's needs are, I can adapt my content and style to fit your audience and needs. I am able to present on a variety of topics concerning all age groups to staff at all levels of your organization. For a list of workshops I have given in the past, check out the Presentations page.
If you are interested in booking a workshop, virtual training, keynote presentation, or want to find out more about specific training opportunities I can bring to your library, feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you!
