What I'm looking for

I seek entry-level medical interpretation roles where I can gain hands-on experience, support patient-centered care, and grow professionally in a collaborative healthcare setting.

I am a motivated medical student and trained medical interpreter with strong linguistic skills and a solid foundation in medical terminology. I bring native Spanish fluency, advanced English (C1, preparing for C2), and training in consecutive interpretation for medical, legal, and social service settings.

I am committed to patient-centered interpretation, HIPAA-compliant confidentiality, and cultural mediation. With volunteer experience, professional interpreter training, and remote-interpretation equipment, I seek hands-on roles supporting patients and healthcare teams.
