I am a member of the Department of Hispanic Studies and serve as affiliated faculty in the programs of humanities, global literature, and gender &amp; sexualities.<\/p>\n<p>My publications include a co-edited a collection of essays,<em>\u00a0<a class=\"extLink\" title=\"Women In the Spanish Novel Today web link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mcfarlandpub.com\/book-2.php?id=978-0-7864-4354-3\">Women in the Spanish Novel Today: Reflections of Self in the Works of Three Generations of Writers<\/a><\/em><a class=\"extLink\" title=\"Women In the Spanish Novel Today web link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mcfarlandpub.com\/book-2.php?id=978-0-7864-4354-3\">\u00a0(McFarland Press)<\/a> and\u00a0various articles focusing on women writers of Spain. My current projects revolve around Spanish television programs and Hildegart&#8211;an advocate for sexual reform during Spain&#8217;s Second Republic. I am constructing a\u00a0<a class=\"extLink\" title=\"Hildegart digital archive site\" href=\"http:\/\/sites.davidson.edu\/hildegart\/\">digital archive<\/a>\u00a0that recovers and examines Hildegart&#8217;s writings from Spanish newspapers and journals housed at the Library of Congress and numerous archives in Madrid.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p>I am committed to creating opportunities for intercultural exchange on campus, in the community, and abroad. In 2002, I established the Davidson Summer Program in C\u00e1diz, Spain and regularly serve as resident director. I also helped create the Davidson in Madrid semester program. In our community, I revived and renovated the\u00a0Spanish in Davidson Elementary School (SiDES)\u00a0partnership between Davidson College and Davidson Elementary School in 2012. In this program, college volunteers teach weekly Spanish lessons to elementary school classes.<\/p>\n<p>From 2013-17, I served on the\u00a0<a title=\"Visit Site\" href=\"http:\/\/apcentral.collegeboard.com\/apc\/members\/exam\/2044.html\">AP Spanish Language Test Development Committee<\/a>\u00a0with the College Board and Educational Testing Service.
