Voces Profesionales: Multilingual Journeys in the Workplace

Join us for Voces Profesionales: Multilingual Journeys in the Workplace — a two-part Tertulia/ Coffee Chat series designed especially for students in the Spanish program at Portland State. This is your chance to hear firsthand how language and culture shape real-world careers. Each session features a different professional who uses their bilingual/multilingual skills in powerful ways across industries. From sports to education to global business, you’ll hear stories of resilience, belonging, and how cultural identity becomes a workplace strength.
