What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a medical interpreting role where I can provide accurate, confidential, culturally responsive communication between patients and healthcare providers in Russian, Ukrainian, English, and ASL.

I've supported Tarrant County College's Health Care Professions division for more than 11 years, working alongside Nursing and Health Sciences programs in a clinical-education environment.

As a Data Management Specialist and Administrative Coordinator, I operate three health-sciences testing labs, including ExamSoft, maintain confidential records, coordinate with faculty and vendors, and prepare institutional reports. I also lead campus-wide health, wellness, and prevention programming as DASHH Campus Coordinator.

I'm a native bilingual Russian and Ukrainian speaker, fluent in English, and a Certified ASL Communicator. I'm completing a 60-hour Professional Medical Interpreter program and pursuing CoreCHI-P certification, building on years of interpreting during medical encounters for family members.
