I experienced a shift in my education when I decided to change my career from business to literature.

My educational background is the following:
    Ph.D. in Comparative Literature, U. of Texas at Austin (1990-95)
    M.A. in Foreign Language and Literature, U. of Wisconsin, Milwaukee (1987-89)
    M.A. in Business Administration, U. of Wisconsin, Milwaukee (1984-86)
    B.A. in Business Administration, U. of Lima (Lima-Per).(1977-83)
I have been the advisor for The International Club at Dowling for the past five years, and we meet regularly during each academic year. Occasionally we organize trips to Manhattan, Washington DC and Philadelphia.
We also like to organize trips abroad for language and visual arts majors. The Language Department in conjunction with Visual Arts offer courses taught in various parts of Latin America and Europe. These enriching and multidisciplinary events expose the students to literature, art, history, and to a first hand experience with the target country and the language.

My favorite authors are Fyodor Dostoevsky, Friedrich Nietzsche, Luigi Pirandello, Miguel de Unamuno, Jorge Luis Borges, Martin Heidegger, and Gabriel Garca Marquez. My favorite movie is Teorema by Pier Paolo Pasolini.
