Libraries first taught me how to explore the world through questions. Today, I help people navigate information with curiosity, clarity, and critical thinking.

My work sits at the intersection of digital librarianship, research, media literacy, and knowledge organization. Whether I’m building searchable archives, designing educational resources, analyzing sources, or creating public-facing content, I’m passionate about making information more accessible and easier to understand.

I believe good information empowers people. I also believe curiosity deserves structure, context, and care.

Hi, I’m Kate.

Areas of Focus

Information Literacy

Helping people evaluate sources, think critically, and navigate today’s information landscape with confidence.

Digital Librianship

Building organized, searchable, and accessible digital collections that connect people with meaningful information.

Research & Organization

Transforming complex topics, documents, and data into structured, user-friendly resources.

Public Education

Creating approachable educational content that bridges expertise and accessibility.

What Drives My Work

I’m endlessly fascinated by how people search for, interpret, trust, and share information.

In a world overflowing with content, I care deeply about helping people slow down, ask better questions, and feel more confident navigating what they encounter online and offline.

I believe libraries are more than buildings or databases. They are tools for empowerment, access, discovery, and connection.
