Greetings all! My name is Lindsay and I am looking forward to learning and collaborating. I live in Minnesota and work as a Library Assistant in a public library branch outside of the Twin Cities. I have been in the MLIS program since Fall 2023 and I plan to graduate in Fall 2025. I have learned so much through the program, one of the biggest things being that I would like to go into academic librarianship. Being fully transparent, I took this class because I read the syllabus from previous semesters and the course description stuck with me. I am interested in the things that connect us as humans, so I thought this class would be up my alley!

I live with my partner John and our dog Franklin. In my free time I enjoy playing my Switch (currently playing Pokemon: Legends Arceus) and reading (my favorite author is Emily Austin, if you would enjoy sapphic literary fiction with a humorous tone I would highly recommend reading her works). I recently took up bird watching which I am enjoying. As if working, classes, and my current hobbies weren’t enough, I am also currently in a community theatre production of Hairspray that will go on stage in mid July.

I am looking forward to learning with you all!
