What I'm looking for

I am seeking roles where I can combine teaching and health promotion with bilingual interpreting, work in student-focused or clinical settings, and contribute to inclusive, supportive teams.

I am a certified physical education teacher with a specialization in kinesiology and extensive experience in adaptive physical education, health instruction, and personal training. I have worked in public schools, laboratories, insurance, and fitness settings, and I bring a student-centered approach to promoting lifelong health and fitness.

I am a bilingual interpreter (Portuguese fluent; Spanish conversational) with medical interpreting experience in hospitals, courts, and public agencies, and hold relevant certifications including CPR and HIPAA. I also have practical experience in program support roles such as lab assistant and delivery services, and I maintain strong computer skills across Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop, and basic web publishing.

I am dedicated to improving well-being through education and clear communication, adapting instruction to diverse needs, and supporting multidisciplinary teams in clinical and educational settings.
