Shout-out for Hilary Davis

Hilary Davis

I recently joined the Libraries and Hilary has been amazingly thoughtful and supportive in helping me acclimate to the organization. She has been so proactive in anticipating my questions and with connecting me to people, notes, and context. Furthermore, Hilary served as interim head of my department, Research Engagement, for more than a year during the pandemic. It’s clear to me that she did an outstanding job not just leading and managing the team, and also with helping staff to thrive, all while managing her own department too. It’s been no easy task to be a manager during the pandemic. I’m grateful for all Hilary has done to support Research Engagement colleagues and for her care in helping me transition into the organization and into my new role. She’s a fantastic leader and colleague!
