Hometown: suburban Cleveland. Family: Youngest of 9 children, father of one child, spouse of one awesome woman. Studies: Journalism and History as undergrad, Library Science for grad school. Jobs: research/public services librarian in academic and public libraries. I specialize in helping remote/off-campus students use a library that is located far away from them. Other stuff: Year round bike commuter; lived in Botswana for two years as a Peace Corps Volunteer. I was pretty confused when I went to college and it seemed like everyone else had a secret guidebook that told them what to do. I've been around enough to know there is no secret guidebook, but perhaps I can point you in a good direction or help you get connected with what you need at UI.
