Who We Are

I work in the Library as the R&I Liaison Librarian for Humanities and Digital Scholarship. As part of that, I help to supervise the Digital Humanities Associates and Digital Scholarship Interns, and work closely with many other groups around campus and at St. Olaf to help support digital scholarship work. The thing that most excites me about digital scholarship is its potential for improving accessibility of scholarship, both in terms of reaching scholars with disabilities but also helping to cross language and writing system barriers.

As Assistant Director of the Humanities Center for Digital Humanities, I work closely with representatives from the Library, Academic Technology and Information Technology Services to foster interdisciplinary collaboration between faculty and undergraduate student-scholars, integrating digital methods deeply into the Liberal Arts curriculum. I teach courses on digital methods, history courses with strong digital components, and collaborative courses in a number of departments that incorporate digital project work. I also co-supervise the Digital Humanities Associate program that trains undergraduates to help coordinate research and pedagogy projects in humanities classrooms. Read my full profile.

Hi all, I’m Will Shrestha! I’m from Saint Paul, Minnesota. I’m a senior Computer Science major and Digital Arts and Humanities minor.

Hi, My name is Emma Zhang (she/her), and I’m from China. I’m a sophomore interested in Cognitive Science and Computer Science. Aside from that, I’m a theater person and have been doing relevant work on campus. This is my first term working as a DHA. I really like the interdisciplinary nature of digital humanities and how DH projects tell valuable stories, so I would love to be part of these projects.

Hi, my name is Jason Zhou, and I’m a freshman. I’m planning to major in Computer Science and Mathematics. I’m excited to explore how digital tools can enhance research and storytelling in the humanities.

My name is Clark Glymph (he/him) and I am new DSI (Digital Scholarship Intern) this fall working on the front end side of things. I am a current junior and a member of the Class of 2026! I was drawn to this job through my interest in Computer Science and Humanities and by taking an intro class in Digital Humanities last Winter. I love learning about design (huge Pinterest lover) and accessibility and I am excited to see the new skills I will gain from this internship in the coming months.

Hi everyone! My name is Warren Kozak, and I am a sophomore from Houston, Texas. I am planning to declare my major as computer science this spring, and I might try to do a minor in math. Aside from academics, I am a member of the Men’s Swimming and Diving team here at Carleton, where I primarily swim mid-distance freestyle and butterfly. I also enjoy playing board games with my family, cuddling with my dog, and doing outdoor activities, such as biking.
