Roles and responsibilities

My primary role is to help all of UNLV's researchers - from early career to experienced - to demonstrate the impact, reach, and significance of their scholarly and creative works. I work with researchers from all disciplines, backgrounds, and knowledge levels. I also collaborate with and support our subject librarians, campus offices such as the Office of Faculty Affairs and the Office of Research, and others in the Scholarly Communication and Data Services department.
