What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my interpretation skills in diverse environments, fostering effective communication and understanding.

I am a dedicated Cantonese interpreter with extensive experience in various settings, including medical, educational, and social services. My journey began with a Bachelor of Arts in Ethnic Studies from the University of California, Berkeley, which laid the foundation for my commitment to bridging communication gaps.

Since 2014, I have worked as an independent contractor for multiple organizations, providing both on-site and phone interpretation services. My roles have included interpreting for dental clinics, school meetings, and social security settings, where I have consistently delivered accurate and professional services. My core certifications, including CoreCHI and Medical Interpreter Certification, further enhance my ability to serve diverse communities effectively.
