I am a rare books conservator located in northeast Indiana, where I managed Etherington Conservation Service's Midwest facility prior to assuming my current role as Product & Marketing Coordinator at The HF Group in North Manchester.  I hold an MLIS degree from UNC-Greensboro and have been working in the book field for a little over a decade.

I have advanced training in preservation administration, book and paper conservation, print culture and the history of the book, and disaster response and recovery.

I am exceptionally passionate about the preservation of cultural artifacts and I am intrigued with how these artifacts help develop and define us as individuals, communities, and nations.

I do not currently accept work as a private conservator.  If you have any questions regarding the potential treatment of an item or would like to request conservation services, please contact me at my company's lab.
