Medical Sciences Library - Staff Profiles

Howdy! I'm the Curriculum and Instruction Librarian for the Texas A&M Medical Sciences Library within the University Libraries. With a Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction from TAMU and a Master of Library Science, I've had the privilege of serving as a librarian in K-12 public schools and later as a curriculum and digital resources coordinator at the district level. My unique perspective allows me to understand our TAMU students' journeys from their former educational experiences to their aspirations in the field of health sciences.

I serve as the Curriculum and Instruction Librarian for the Medical Sciences Library, specializing in aligning library expertise with the needs of health sciences education. My areas of support include:

• Curriculum Integration: Partnering with faculty to connect library resources and information literacy directly to curricular objectives.
• Resource Development: Creating library guides to support health sciences learning outcomes.
• Instructional Support: Teaching students and faculty how to effectively navigate and utilize library resources for research, learning, and clinical practice.
