Background

About Kayci Rush

I currently have a Bachelor's degree in history from Texas Tech University, as well as a Master's Degree in Heritage and Museum Science from Texas Tech University, and a Master's Degree in Library Science from the University of North Texas. I have over six years of experience working in an archive, and almost ten years of experience working in the information sciences field. When I went to college, my goal was to be a teacher. Throughout my college experience I learned that there is much more to education that what you see in a classroom. My passion is with history, education, libraries and museums. Since I am an educator at heart, my goal is to get a job where I can work in an information institution that has education as one of its primary purposes. Some of my objectives include imparting knowledge on people through fun educational activities, interpretation, and programs, as well as providing instruction to foster curiosity, exploration, and life long learners. Currently, I am particularly interested in informal education at libraries and museums, since they can provide students with different opportunities and experiences than the classroom.
