SVETLA BEN-ITZHAK: Instructor



I was born in Bulgaria but graduated from a French high school and lived in France for a long time. In France, I completed a BA and an MA in Modern Languages and Applied Linguistics (English/Russian) and came to K-State in 1998 as an exchange student. I liked it and I stayed to pursue graduate studies in Political Science. I am married to a wonderful man and have a super cute six-month daughter. We have family on four continents so we travel a lot. Among other things, I also enjoy hiking, politics, astrophysics, and biblical archaeology/egyptology.
