Presentations.

Here I have included information of what I have presented over the years in various cities around world. Besides the conferences, I had conceptualized a workshop on intercultural communication in Canadian academic settings which, together with Irina Presnyakova, have been developing and facilitating since 2016.

In 2015 I participated in the SFU 3-Minute Thesis competition and, after receiving the People’s Choice Award, advanced to the Finals.
