What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my language skills in diverse settings, fostering communication and collaboration.

I am a dedicated bilingual Spanish-English interpreter and translator with over 8 years of experience in language and interpretation roles. My commitment to providing accurate and culturally sensitive interpretation has allowed me to bridge language barriers effectively, ensuring seamless communication across various settings. I have honed my skills in both remote and in-person assignments, working with diverse clients and academic professionals.

Currently, I serve as a Spanish-English Interpreter/Translator at Harlingten Observatories, where I provide translation services for a global audience. My role involves facilitating communication between Spanish-speaking academic users and English-speaking staff, receiving positive feedback for my professional and accurate translations. I have also completed freelance assignments, adapting to diverse subject matter and client needs, which has further enriched my experience in the field.

My educational background includes a Higher Education Diploma in Modern Languages from the University of Essex, where I developed my language skills in Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and French. I am passionate about fostering clear communication and contributing to the success of academic projects through my interpretation services.
