I am a Moving Image Archival Administrator with a background in Film History and Library & Information Studies. My own research is on the history of motion picture film technology. I am interested in cultural heritage science approaches to preservation, and in applying quantitative methods to humanities topics. I am also interested in learning more about our archive's users.
