Master thesis: 
Pakistani Immigration and Integration in the Basque Country: A Case Study of Oñati
Biografía: 

I study life course and how family connections influence inter-generational trauma. Using qualitative methods, I investigate how these events impact adult life today among Japanese Canadians.

Experience in Oñati: 

Oñati was a foundational experience. There, I took afternoon walks in the countryside and evening meals in bars dotting the town. I enjoyed many cultural events held during my stay and found the library to be an invaluable resource for research. Highly recommend this once in a lifetime experience.
