What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my medical interpretation skills while contributing to patient care in a supportive and collaborative environment.

I am a newly graduated medical doctor with over three years of experience in medical interpretation across clinical settings in the U.S. and U.K. My background includes a Doctor of Medicine from the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine and a Master of Science in Healthcare Administration from Central Michigan University. I am a native Vietnamese speaker fluent in English, which allows me to bridge language gaps effectively and ensure quality patient care.

Throughout my career, I have provided real-time medical interpretation for various hospitals and clinics, supporting a wide range of services including emergency department visits and mental health sessions. My experience as a medical clerk during clinical rotations has given me strong exposure to medical practice and documentation, where I collaborated with multidisciplinary teams and frequently interpreted for Vietnamese-speaking patients. I am dedicated to maintaining patient confidentiality and ensuring HIPAA-compliant communication in all my interactions.
