I’m a Canadian and a librarian. I have worked with open source software (OSS) and communities since 2011. I started my career in the Islandora community and have worked on more than forty OSS digital repository projects. Before entering into the world of open source, I ran my own small research business called CloudScout Information Services and worked in a small research library at Environment Canada.
My work at DuraSpace to date has been focused on building new initiatives related to grant projects, delivering professional services that support open projects and services, as well as programs that foster collaboration with open source service providers. Recently, in 2018 I participated in the Mozilla Open Leadership Training Series and applied it to building communities efforts around our open source DuraCloud software and the ARKs-in-the-Open project. I’m also an active member of the Research Data Canada (RDC) Infrastructure Committee.
