"Are you starting an independent research project, working on a personal research project, hoping to learn how to do research, or want to brush up on your research skills? Then you are in the right place! I have 10+ years experience helping researchers fulfill their research goals, and I would love to help you, too!

In a session we may do one or more of the following: articulate your research goals, develop or clarify your research question or topic, find and evaluate resources, discuss citation management and citation styles, analyze if your writing clearly and effectively communicates your ideas, and more!

Feel free to reach out to me if you do not see your needs reflected, as this list is not exhaustive. If you are further along in the research process, please still reach out. I also have experience editing and proofreading personal and academic essays and am an author of 5+ academic publications.

I currently work as a freelance librarian and grad student mentor. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from UCLA with a B.A. in English and a Minor in Digital Humanities. For my graduate studies I pursued a Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS), after which I worked as a Science Librarian at UCLA Library for approximately 6 years. Prior to that, I worked as an Instructional Design and Technology Consultant at UCLA Library. My instructional design background informs my learner-centered approach, where I help you break your research goals down into manageable tasks. My multidisciplinary background means I am comfortable helping with various subjects and disciplines.

I am offering one-on-one sessions at this time, as they provide the best opportunity to tailor our time together to your unique needs. While I have most recently assisted undergraduate and graduate students, I have also helped high school students and adult learners and I am happy to meet with anyone who needs help. Feel free to message me and we can plan an approach to meet your goals. I look forward to meeting with you!" less...
