| How Has Spanish Played a Role in Your Personal and Professional Life? |
Spanish was integral for my development as a musician (specializing in Cuban and other Latin American musics) and as an academic doing research in Latin America. I lived in Mexico for approximately 3 years, became a naturalized Mexican citizen, and continue to visit family there frequently.
