I hold a BA in English Philology from the University of Deusto and a MA in Hispanic Linguistics from The Ohio State University. After working as a Technical Writer in a software company in Germany, I returned to Spain and worked as an English and German instructor at the University of the Basque Country. I am currently working as a German teacher and Project Manager at a Post-Secondary Vocational Education College. My PhD project focuses on strategies for teaching German for specific purposes in Post-Secondary Vocational Education and is supervised by Dr. Junkal Gutiérrez and Dr. Miguel Ayerbe.
