In Their Own Words

"As a librarian, I offer library workshops and office hours related to academic writing and research methods. Thanks to my educational background and experience as a researcher, I can provide students with proper resources and tips to improve their academic and research skills. In order to help them achieve college and future success, I try to promote their critical reading and thinking skills. This way they can pursue and sustain their musical career more effectively."

"My philosophy of education is to embrace individuality. It is my desire to create a motivated and comfortable educational atmosphere to meet students’ full potential. To do so, I am willing to modify and provide a variety of approaches and strategies for teaching and delivering information in order to better align with their individual needs." 

"I see Berklee's campus in Valencia as a welcoming place where the respect for individuality and cultural diversity is lively. I believe Berklee’s mission and philosophy have made the innovation and influences in today’s music possible."
