\nHi! I\u2019m Aleah, and I\u2019m a graduate student studying Library and Information Science at the iSchool! I completed my undergrad at the University of Miami in Florida, where I studied Music and minored in Finance and Music Business. I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, and I\u2019m super excited to be back studying in my home state! In my free time, I love playing musical instruments (ask me about the harp!), reading, and doing deep dives into topics I\u2019m passionate about. I\u2019m really looking forward to walking you through the research process and being a resource for any questions you may have.

\"PhotoSeneca (she\/her)<\/strong>
\nHi, I\u2019m Seneca! I\u2019m a current Master\u2019s student here at the School of Information Sciences. I graduated from Vassar College a few years ago where I majored in Political Science and French. I remember being assigned my first research assignment for a history class freshman year and having a one on one research consultation with a librarian. She helped me develop a search strategy and use a database. Without her help, I don\u2019t know how I would\u2019ve found any good scholarly sources! So speaking from my own experience, booking a research consultation is a great idea. And some things I enjoy outside of work and school: being outside, yoga, contra dancing, and traveling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
