Before Digital Accessibility Services (DAS) was created, I represented FAS in the HUIT Accessibility Working Group and the Digital Accessibility Working Group for the University Accessibility Committee. My IT career started in the late Nineties at the Eastman School of Music and has continued at Harvard since 2005.

My other interests include cinema, theater, international travel, and cats.
