¡Hola!
Born in Madrid (Spain), I am a second year Ph.D. student in the Hispanic Linguistics program. During this semester (Spring 2022), I am teaching one section of SPAN 2001, and I am the WIP Teaching Assistant of the LatinAmerican Cinema class (SPAN4082) with Dr.Kaplan. In the last three years, I taught SPAN 1002, SPAN 1110, SPAN 2001, and SPAN 4090. I also worked as a Graduate Research Assistant with Dr.Quesada and Dr.Blackwell during the past academic course (2020-2021).
My current interests include, but are not limited to, Second Language Acquisition, Applied Linguistics and Heritage Speakers.
