She teaches French and Spanish language courses and upper-level courses on Spanish and Latin American literature. As an instructor at Florida International University prior to joining the Hope College faculty in 2021, she also taught Spanish classes focused on business communication.

Outside the College

As someone interested in photography, Dr. Portillo is fascinated by light and enjoys how different it is in Holland, Michigan, than it is in Peru. Having grown up there with warm temperatures all year round, she takes pleasure in Michigan亚洲色吧檚 seasons as well.

She loves to read novels while sipping tea, particularly novels that look at the experience of females in different periods of history. She gravitates to foreign literature such as Eastern Asian and Western European literature.
