I am the archivist and special collections librarian at Hollins. I started in 2022 and greatly enjoy making the history and legacy of Hollins University accessible to everyone. We also have a variety of rare books in the collection, including medieval manuscripts, children’s books, artist books, clay tablets, maps, and periodicals.

If you are curious about Hollins history, rare books and manuscripts, or simply interested in archives or archival work, I am happy to facilitate your research. My door is always open.
