I am studying for my PhD at the University of Valencia, in the Department of Language and Literature; my subject is Spanish theatre during the Spanish Golden Age, especially the author Calderon de la Barca. I obtained an undergraduate degree in Spanish Studies from the University of Valencia, and have certifications in education and in the teaching of Spanish as a foreign language.

I have worked in the Netherlands teaching Spanish at the Hogeschool van Utrecht, and in Spain at the Politécnico Galileo Galilei. For the last four years I have lived in Stockholm, Sweden, teaching Spanish at the Instituto Cervantes.

• planning curriculum on the subject of poetry during the Spanish Civil War;
