Emerson College, Opera America, Jane Austen, bacon, Information & Learning Services

I joined the OPERA America staff in January 2006. I've held production administration positions at Glimmerglass Opera, have been a stage manager for the Juilliard School Concert Office and have held customer service and operations positions at Rose Brand, one of the nation's largest theatrical suppliers. I'm a member of the Theta Chapter of Beta Phi Mu, the national library and information studies honor society; the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund (CBLDF), dedicated to the preservation of First Amendment rights for members of the comics community; and the National Center for Science Education (NCSE), which defends teaching the theory of evolution in public schools. I hold a B.F.A. in theater production from Emerson College, and an M.L.I.S. and an archives certificate from Pratt Institute.
