Hello! I hold dual degrees in English and Library and Information Sciences.  My areas of research are in 20th and 21st century African American literature. My specialty is both Black popular culture and Black women studies. Another area of interest for me is digital humanities and digital pedagogy. I am the Humanities Librarian for IUPUI.
