So why “The Loudmouth Librarian”? Because, when I work with teens, I tend to get loud and excited – to the point that I’ve been “shushed” by my fellow librarians! I can’t help it. I love my job. 🙂

I’m a writer and Teen Librarian in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon. I have a BA in English and Creative Writing from Florida Southern College and an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts. I taught high school English and Reading for six years before switching over to librarianship.

I’m currently pursuing my MLIS online at Valdosta State University. I love working with children, tweens, and teens and making them feel at home! If you’d like to learn more, feel free to check out my resume.
