Mary A. Sobhani's expertise lies in Spanish literature and language. Having grown up in Costa Rica, El Salvador, and Bolivia, she also studied for a year in La Universidad de Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, Spain. These experiences enrich her instruction and are well-aligned with the department's aim to promote a world-embracing vision.
