Words of Wisdom

I owe a debt of gratitude for the kindness and commitment of former professors and continued mentors Marcelo Pellegrini, Paola Hernández, Isabel Martín-Sánchez, Steven Hutchinson, Bárbara Rodríguez-Guridi, and Fernando Tejedo-Herrero. Thank you for making me feel supported, seen, and heard, and for building my confidence and my written and spoken Spanish voice.
