studied abroad in Barcelona, Spain for a semester in college. During this trip she had the opportunity to be fully immersed in the Spanish language

They don't speak Spanish in Barcelona. And they don't take kindly to being referred to as being in Spain. The administrative unit is called Catalunya, or Catalonia in English. Nuttyskin (talk) 11:51, 12 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

The particular 'like' or 'dislike' on the part of residents of being a city in Spain is not particularly relevant to the fact that the city of Barcelona is, indeed, in Spain. They also very much speak Spanish there. 24.182.239.226 (talk) 01:56, 17 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Iranian-American?

According to the biography, she was born and raised in America. It's just her parents who are immigrants from Iran. I don't this qualifies her as an Iranian-American and I think that it should be changed to just "American". Masktapeisawesome (talk) 17:21, 12 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
