More about me
I was previously the Mass Digitization Coordinator for the New York Public Library. I am also a member of the 2018 Archives Leadership Institute cohort, and was a National Digital Stewardship Resident 2015-2016. I have participated in numerous community archives projects centering on audio-visual materials, including as a member of the New York City based media preservation collective XFR Collective. I am particularly interested in the ethics surrounding digitization of collections from underrepresented and/or marginalized groups.
