Biography
Salut! Welcome to MSU's department of World Languages & Cultures. We offer language, literature, culture, and translation courses, along with majors and minors across nine languages: French, Italian, German, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. We also offer an innovative joint degree program with the Feliciano School of Business focused on Language, Business & Culture.
My own teaching involves all levels of our French curriculum, from beginning and intermediate language courses, to major courses in translation, conversation, composition, and grammar, and undergraduate and MA courses in early modern literature and civilization.
