About Me

Based in Seattle, I came into this work through GIS and a growing interest in the systems that make data usable in the first place. As a Data Analyst for Apple Maps, I reviewed spatial data, resolved user-reported issues, and tracked project progress through dashboards. That experience made me pay closer attention to the structure behind everyday information, especially the metadata, workflows, and decisions that shape what people are able to access and use.

In the MLIS program at the University of Washington, I have built on that foundation by exploring data, systems, and information access more deeply. My background in GIS, SQL, and data analysis gave me a strong technical base, while graduate work expanded that into documentation, workflow analysis, privacy, and practical information management. Projects in workload analytics and public computer privacy helped clarify the kind of work I am most drawn to: technical problem-solving that is tied not only to organizational needs, but also to the people affected by those systems.

I am especially interested in information management and technical information roles where I can work with data, documentation, and systems in a way that is careful, clear, and sustainable over time. Outside of work and school, I am drawn to museums, public art, and community spaces, which continue to shape how I think about access, design, and the value of well-organized information.
