Since then she has worked in book conservation at a university followed by nearly 20 years in public library service as a cataloger. She served as president of The Library of Consortium of Eastern Idaho and loved serving rural libraries. She also has experience in genealogy and family history with a special interest in DNA research. She is passionate about all things open-source and has been a devoted Linux user for many years.
