GENERAL
Biography
I consider myself a young researcher, from Bogota, a cat lover and a passionate soccer fan (Millonarios fan, of course). My personal interests range from reading historical novels, cooking and even salsa brava. I have dedicated a large part of my academic and professional career to the training of future English graduates in Colombia in the public sector. I am always willing to learn and (un)learn.
