PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES SUMMARY

I collaborate closely with faculty, researchers, and academic departments, providing expertise in evidence synthesis, scholarly communication, research impact assessment, and information literacy.

 

As a research partner on systematic and scoping reviews, I develop and execute comprehensive, reproducible search strategies across multiple databases and information sources to identify relevant literature for inclusion in evidence syntheses. I contribute to the design and documentation of review methodologies and frequently co-author protocols and manuscripts, particularly methods sections related to literature searching, study identification, and reporting standards.

 

In support of institutional research and assessment initiatives, I work with department chairs, administrators, and faculty leaders to collect, analyze, and report bibliometric and research impact data. Using publication, citation, and collaboration metrics, I create customized reports that inform strategic planning, program reviews, accreditation activities, faculty evaluation processes, and departmental decision-making.

 

I also partner with faculty across disciplines to integrate information literacy concepts and learning outcomes into undergraduate and graduate curricula. Through collaborative course design, instructional consultations, and embedded library instruction, I help students develop the skills needed to locate, evaluate, synthesize, and ethically use information. My teaching and outreach efforts support student success, promote evidence-based inquiry, and foster critical engagement with scholarly and professional information resources.

 

Through these collaborations, I serve as both an educator and research partner, advancing institutional goals related to student learning, scholarly productivity, and research excellence.
