I am a 1st year doctoral student in the Interdisciplinary Program in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching at the University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ. I am also on a scholarship from the Fulbright Commission. I like to think of myself as a goal-oriented person who is eager to learn things that complement and enrich my present knowledge and experience. My academic interests include, but are not limited to, teacher education, English as an International Language, and emerging technologies in foreign language education.
