Senior Lector II Emerita in Spanish and PortugueseM.A. Harvard University
I recently retired from the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at Yale, where I taught all levels of Spanish and focused on heritage language education. I also initiated the cross-language Heritage Meets Heritage project, which brings together speakers of different heritage languages. I grew up in a Mexican border town, studied Romance languages at Stanford, and did graduate study in Italian literature at Harvard. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, various textile crafts, photography, and reading. I look forward to talking to you!
