I'm a librarian; I work at an academic library in Manhattan and as a freelance editor, and live in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn.

I received my MSLIS from Drexel and my BA from Yale (German Studies).

My interests include classical music & opera, Northern Renaissance art, foreign languages (especially German, French, and Dutch), needlecrafts (sewing, knitting and embroidery), politics, electronic gadgets, urban design, and (of course) reading.

I intermittently maintain a blog about LIS and a personal journal.
