Hello world!
I am a digital archivist with over 8 years of experience in information management, specializing in digital repositories, DAM systems and collaborate software.
As a digital archivist, I ingest, assess and manage digital files (i.e. images and photographs) and paper records using digital asset and collection management systems. My work includes traditional archives activities such as finding aids, collection processing, assessment, accessions, storage and handling. I am a Metadata specialist for digital arts and photography, working with taxonomies, controlled vocabularies and current metadata schemas (i.e. Dublin Core).
As an information manager, I’m passionate about creating working environments that apply current technologies to business operations and practices. I work closely with staff and create digital workflows, organizational methods and records management policies. I am an ardent supporter of incorporating Web 2.0 technologies in organizations to foster productivity and creativity. I help people gain control of information overload and connect to the information they need.
Environments: Museum Archives, Academic Archives, Institutional Archives, Cultural Institutions, Design Studios, Photography Studios, Private Libraries and Small Offices.
Specialties:
Digital files, Paper records, Photographs, Digital asset management (DAM), Web 2.0, Information design, Usability, Knowledge Management and Workflow creation
