About
I work as the Processing and Reference Archivist in Special Collections and Rare Books at Simon Fraser University, where I lead reference and instructional activities. I am also responsible for managing, preserving, and promoting access to archival fonds and collections.
I serve on the board of the Freedom of Information and Privacy Association (FIPA), a non-profit, non-partisan society that promotes and defends freedom of information and privacy rights in Canada, and as the Director of Publications for the Alcuin Society, an association dedicated to promoting book arts.
My research practice focuses on areas related to special collections and rare books, including issues of privacy in personal archives; archival theory and personal archives; and early modern book history.
