In my leadership roles, as Director of the Rob Kling Center, I enjoy supporting interdisciplinary teams and sustaining Rob Kling’s legacy for Social Informatics. I am passionate about fostering collaborative spaces where both students and faculty can thrive. I also had the privilege of serving as Chair of the Information & Library Science Department from 2022 to 2025.
