I’m a librarian with interest and experience in rare books and special collections, digital humanities, exhibits, education, and outreach. (I also moonlight as a copywriter and travel blogger.)

I’m interested in the history of cooking and recipes, the history (and future) of text, and whatever cool thing you just looked up in the archives.

I’ve been lucky enough to work at the Newberry Library, the Butler Library at Columbia University, and the Bodleian. Right now I’m working on The Rare Commons, and avoiding working on things at Cook Instead.

Come say hi!
