I grew up in my uncle's used book store, surrounded by the magic of organized knowledge. When everyone told me my English degree was "worthless," librarianship felt like a natural fit. I spent years exploring different types of library work until I found my passion in the back-end systems - metadata, controlled vocabulary, cataloging. The parts that make information findable and usable.

My favorite part of being a librarian was always the behind-the-scenes work that makes everything else possible. When I decided to start my own business, it just made sense to focus on what brings me the most joy. Plus, I love a good bibliography (yes, I'm a nerd!). Finding the best sources of information on any topic is an absolute delight.

I'm an avid knitter, and the very first thing I knitted beyond a scarf was an entrelac headband - a fairly advanced technique that I dove into head-first just because I thought it was beautiful. That's exactly how I approach information challenges: diving in with curiosity and determination to create something both functional and elegant. Just like entrelac knitting untangles yarn into beautiful patterns, I untangle information chaos into organized systems.

About ten years ago, I discovered "slow fashion" and "circular economy" concepts, which sparked a passion that led me to pursue a Master's in Supply Chain Management. I'm convinced that meaningful climate action has to come from industry, not just individuals. If my talents can contribute to that mission, then I'll feel like I've done some good in the world.

Operating between the US and Uruguay, I specialize in virtual collaboration and building organizational structures that work for distributed teams. I love working with people to figure out the similarities and differences that need to be considered to make your resources findable for everyone, no matter where they are located. My approach combines time-tested methodology with practical, human-centered design - because information systems should work the way people think, not the way software thinks they should work.

What I love most about this work goes beyond "organizing things." I'm fascinated by how many different ways there are to look at something, and how shared language (controlled vocabulary) and structure (taxonomy) can reflect different viewpoints in a cohesive way. I also love learning new things - even surface-level knowledge delights me, which is why I offer research services alongside information management.
