I live in Tucson with my husband, two sons, and 15 animals--2 dogs,
                        5 cats, 3 turtles, 2 tortoises, 2 geckos, and a frog.

                        My favorite hobby is reading mystery novels, and my favorite bookstore
                        is Clues Unlimited.  I'm also an aspiring mystery writer and a member of
                         Sisters in Crime.

                        Caring for my family, doing an internship at Pima Community College,
                        and working as a graduate student on the  reference desk at UA Main Library
                        all help keep me busy.

                        This is my last semester at SIRLS, as I'm planning to graduate this May.
                        After graduation, I'd like to work as a community college librarian.

                             I'm taking this class because I enjoy academic librarianship and
                        realize the importance of bibliographic instruction in the academic setting.

                        This semester I'm enjoying my terms as SLA president and fundraising
                        co-coordinator of  LSO.

                        I also was part of the group who painted "A" Mountain red, white, and
                        blue, and had blue fingernails for weeks to prove it!
