I am a bilingual (EN-SP) professional with 20 years of experience in healthcare, telehealth, and bilingual communication. With over a decade of experience in translation and interpretation, I have worked across various fields, including medical, educational, financial, and legal content.
My MD training has given me a profound understanding of medical terminology, and my passion for bridging language barriers has driven me to expand my expertise into other areas. I have a proven track record of delivering precise, culturally sensitive translations and have recently taken on a new role as an interpreter for Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings.
My strong organizational and project management skills, honed through leading remote teams and optimizing operations, allow me to thrive in fast-paced, detail-driven environments. Whether ensuring linguistic accuracy in translation or adapting complex terminology for diverse audiences, my focus remains on delivering high-quality, impactful, and culturally appropriate communication solutions.
