Service

My professional development has evolved through doctoral study, interdisciplinary collaboration, university service, and engagement with scholarly and professional organizations. Building on my background in K–12 educational leadership, my work in higher education has expanded my involvement in institutional governance, academic scholarship, and initiatives addressing emerging technologies and accessibility. At the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, I contribute to university-wide initiatives involving artificial intelligence, digital accessibility, and instructional practices. These experiences have strengthened my ability to collaborate across academic disciplines and administrative units, particularly when addressing complex questions involving technology, institutional policy, and educational equity. My involvement in professional organizations, including the Association for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T), the North American Symposium on Knowledge Organization (NASKO), and the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT), reflects my commitment to scholarly exchange and interdisciplinary collaboration. Through conference planning, professional service, and peer reviewing, I contribute to the communities that support research and advance our fields. I approach professional service as an opportunity to connect scholarship with institutional practice. Whether reviewing research, supporting professional development, or contributing to policy discussions, I value thoughtful collaboration, constructive dialogue, and the collective responsibility to create more accessible and equitable educational environments.
