About me
Call me Remy, Profe, Dr. Attig, anything but "sir."
I'm an assistant professor of Spanish and Translation Studies at Bowling Green State University. I'm also a sociolinguist, which means I study how the groups that we belong to shape our language use. In particular, I'm interested in translinguistics (also known as code-switching or language mixing), the translation of TV/Film for international audiences, and queer and inclusive ways of speaking.
I'm especially interested in the equity in the translation process, where power differentials, minoritized identities, and diaspora/border language varieties are concerned.
In my free time I travel, craft, game, go to the gym, and get really obsessed about random hobbies for about 3-6 months before moving on to something else with equal excitement.
I speak Spanish, English, French, Portuguese, and American Sign Language.
