PROFILE
Current residence: Boston, MA, US
I wanted to earn a masters degree because:
I have always been interested in learning and knowledge. I also like to help people reach their potential and academic librarianship allows me to do this.
While earning my degree, my greatest supporters were:
My family members were my biggest supporters. My husband encouraged me and my kids inspired me. My parents were there for me too!
While in the program, I met classmates from:
California, Suriname, Venezuela -- It was great to learn with such a diverse group.
What I liked best about online learning was:
The asynchronous delivery of the lessons allowed me to participate when and where I was able to. I worked full time while I went to SJSU, and I wouldn't have been able to do this with a different format.
What I enjoyed most about my experience at the SJSU School of Information was:
Having instructors from a range of institutions. I focused on academic librarianship and it was very helpful to me to have professors from other colleges and universities. It allowed me to learn about different institutions as well as different areas of librarianship.
I plan to use my degree to:
I plan to continue to work in higher education in order to help faculty and students find the information they need to be successful.
Now that I have completed the program, I'm most looking forward to:
I am looking forward to using my skills and knowledge to advance the field through participation in conferences and by contributing to the professional literature.
