About Me

Hello and welcome to my E-Portfolio! My name is Tanisha McRae and I will be graduating from the MLIS program at Old Dominion University in May 2024! Throughout the program I have been eager to learn more and improve my existing expertise. I am currently the Youth Program Coordinator at the Downtown Branch at Slover in Norfolk, VA and oversee programs on the children and teen floor. I hold a Bachelors in Economics from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Masters in Public Administration from South University. I aspire to one day become a Branch Manager after completing this program.

When I am not at work serving the community, you can find me at home spending time with my husband, our 6 year old daughter, and our 3 year old English Bulldog, Louie. My hobbies include reading, watching Netflix, and shopping at Target with my daughter. I am passionate about my job and all that a library provides and I am an advocate for diversity in our collection and program offerings. I feel that every person should be able to come into the library and find resources and programs that makes them feel welcome.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page and I hope you enjoy!
