Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

I provide leadership for the research services portfolio in University Libraries, which encompasses analysis of the strategic environment for the libraries, of academic program needs, and of changing user behaviors, in order to develop, refine, assess and sustain an evolving program of research services for faculty, researchers and students throughout the university.

I am the co-founder and co-faculty director of OHI/O program (hack.osu.edu).  The OHI/O Program fosters a tech culture at Ohio State and its surrounding communities, ultimately providing students the opportunity to learn and build with real technologies outside of the classroom.

Finally I have certifications in interactive methodologies like LEGO® SeriousPlay® and Strategic Doing™. Through these hands-on, collaborative approaches, I empower teams to unlock creativity, solve complex problems, and drive strategic action.
