I'm in my fourth semester SJSU SLIS student (Fall '08). Work full-time at CSU Sacramento in the cataloging department of the University Library. It's a challenge to return to school as a mid-lifer... but a challenge that's been energizing so far!

For now, my plan is to specialize in Information Organization and Description.

If I'm not at work or studying, I'm either at the gym, walking my dog Jake, or just hanging out with my partner Rick.... or wasting time on Facebook.

This YouTube video features three librarians I admire expressing values and ideas with which I identify.
