Hello! My name is Michael, and I am the Teen Librarian for the Raisin Vines cluster, which includes Caruthers, Easton, Fowler, Gillis, Kingsburg, Laton, Riverdale, and Selma. I have a bachelor’s degree in International Studies from University of Nebraska at Omaha and a master’s degree in Library Science from Emporia State University. I am a brand-new California resident as of 2024. In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my family, gardening, exploring my adopted state, and of course, reading! My favorite genres to read include speculative fiction and history.
