Presenter: Catherine Blake, Archives Manager at CallisonRTKL

Fifteen years ago I launched my career as an archivist seeking a way to combine my education in design and architectural history with my fascination with information management. I got my start as a records manager for a General Contractor before moving on to my current position at CallisonRTKL, an international design firm of 1,500 employees.
