Very interested in intellectual freedom issues. Also very interested in the history of the English-language Bible and in talking about and presenting from NCU's significant collection of rare, early printed English Bibles. Happy to talk about issues of Christian faith as they intersect the professional workplace. Also a great Oregon Ducks football fan and follow NASCAR (Denny Hamlin, Joe Gibbs Racing, particularly). Born in Oregon and lived most of my life here. I have been library director at NCU since 2006 and have worked there since 1996. I am a 1987 graduate of NCU (NCC then), I also hold a M. Mus in Choral Conducting from the UO and MLS from Emporia State.
