Chad Kamen

Chad Kamen is a first year Master of Information student at the University of Michigan. Through pursuing the School of Information’s digital curation track, he hopes to focus his studies on how community-centered archives develop reparative classification and metadata practices. Before coming to Michigan, Chad worked on a variety of different archival projects at the University of Virginia, including a year-long collaborative effort to build an exhibition of the University’s multitude of queer histories. He is excited to carry this experience forward as a research assistant for the ReConnect/ReCollect team.
