de la Hoz Leal, Jorge

Graduate Assistant

¡Hola!

My name is Jorge de la Hoz Leal and I am Ph.D. student in Hispanic Linguistics and a Graduate Assistant for the Department of Spanish and Portuguese. I graduated from the University of Salamanca (Spain) with a BA in Translation and Interpreting. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I enjoyed the opportunity of completing an academic exchange in the University of Iceland. I obtained my master's degree in Spanish from Wichita State University. I am extremely interested in Spanish for heritage speakers, translation studies, language access and health equity.

On a personal note, I love hiking, museums and sports; especially basketball.
