I am a taxonomist and author of the book The Accidental Taxonomist (Information Today Inc., ). I have designed and developed taxonomies and metadata strategies for web and internal content management both as an independent consultant and as an employee in different organizations. I also teach online continuing education workshops in taxonomy creation through Simmons College Graduate School of Library and Information Science and often give workshops and presentations at conferences. I was the founding chair of mentoring committee of the Taxonomy Division of SLA and was the founder and past manager of the Taxonomies amp Controlled Vocabularies SIG of the American Society for Indexing.
