Biography
With a Master’s in Linguistics and a passion for sociolinguistics, I am fascinated by how people express their identities through the way they communicate. As a language educator, I enjoy helping students build language and communication skills they can apply not only in academic settings but also professionally or in other contexts, empowering them to confidently express their identities through language.
