Originally, I’m from Fort Worth, Texas. I got my B.A. degree in Political Science at the University of Texas at Arlington. I got my M.S. degree in Information Science at the University of North Texas. My first librarian position was at the University of Texas at San Antonio. I stayed in San Antonio for 13 months until I landed the position here at Texas A&M University – Commerce.
As I said in class on Tuesday, I am the Social Sciences Reference/Government Documents Librarian. I am in charge of the government documents section. In addition to working with government documents, I am the subject specialist for history, political science, sociology, criminal justice, and social work. I have been in that position for a little over three years now. In addition to my duties in the library, I serve as the senator representing the library in the faculty senate. Some of my professional areas that I have a strong interest in addition to government documents are information literacy and (GIS) Geographic Information Systems. The library is in the process of creating a GIS lab in the government documents area.
