I select print and electronic materials and manage Stanford's subscriptions in my subject areas, I am the liaison between Stanford University Libraries and the Mathematics and Statistics Departments, and I teach Carpentries (and Carpentries-style) workshops on Python, R, and LaTeX. I received a Ph.D. in mathematics from Rice University, with research in knot and link concordance, satellite constructions, and 4-dimensional manifolds, particularly in the topological setting. Before coming to Stanford, I also worked as the Mathematics Collection Development assistant at Rice's Fondren Library.
