Current Role at Stanford


As the Physics Librarian, I support Stanford researchers and students with information resources and research assistance in physics, applied physics, and astronomy. Through the University Libraries, I also serve as the local Refworks administrator. In support of the Diversity and Access Office, I also serve on the Board of the Asian Staff Forum (ASF) and as a mentor in the Asian Interactive Mentoring (AIM) program.
