Bilingual medical interpreter with extensive teaching and management experience.
MexicoWhat I'm looking for
With over a decade of experience in education and medical interpretation, I have honed my skills in communication and management. My journey began in the hospitality industry, where I developed a strong foundation in customer service and operational management. Transitioning into education, I have successfully managed an educational center, teaching English to diverse age groups while ensuring the center met its goals.
In my recent roles as a medical interpreter, I have provided critical language support in healthcare settings, facilitating communication between patients and providers. My ability to navigate complex medical terminology and maintain patient confidentiality has been essential in delivering high-quality service. I am passionate about bridging language barriers and enhancing patient experiences through effective communication.
