Before coming to Seattle, Liz was an independent consultant working in digital preservation and data curation, with clients including the Digital Curation Centre, the University of Edinburgh, and the EDINA National Data Centre. She began the data-centric portion of her career at the Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research, after earning her MS in Information from the University of Michigan School of Information.
