About meI am a first semester Simmons College library and information science student taking Information Organization, Introduction to Archival Methods and Services, Knowledge Management, and Technology for Information Professionals. I attended UMass-Amherst from September 2006 to May 2009, when I graduated with a BA in philosophy. I concentrated on Ethics and Logic and wrote my thesis under Fred Feldman on a practical form of utilitarianism I called Precedence Utilitarianism. While at UMass, I worked in Special Collections and University Archives (SCUA) at the W.E.B. Du Bois Library. Check out some of the work I did for SCUA on my website.

I’m currently reading The Manual of Detection by Jedidiah Berry and The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell. I'm excited to start The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. My favorite work of fiction is The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. The best YA book I’ve read recently is The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness. My favorite book for grades 3 to 5 is Bunnicula by James and Deborah Howe. My favorite picture book is Billy and Blaze by C.W. Anderson. My favorite reference book is Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations.
