Professional Summary

I do believe I have a wide range of experience in different fields. I have

a great experience as a College Professor and knowledge of Spanish American

Literature from the Conquest to present. I am very good with language and

very strong in verbal and writing communications. I am excellent with

people and I work well under pressure. I am 100% bilingual (I translated

the complete play Dream of Sor Juana from Lois Hobart, English to Spanish,

to mention just one example). I am very good working with people of all

levels of education and different social backgrounds. I have been always a

positive person, highly energetic and I try to enjoy what I am doing. I

read in public my poetry and essays, so I am not afraid to speak in front

of a crowd. I consider myself easy to take or give orders. Wherever I

worked in the past, I always exceed expectations. I like physical work as

much as intellectual challenges.
