I am looking for the opportunity to work for a company where I can effectively use my knowledge and experience in business management and my skills as a bilingual speaker. I am also seeking a position that will allow me to use my strong organizational skills, educational and bi-cultural background, and ability to work well with others. I am available for freelance translation and interpretation.
I currently work as a medical interpreter and have over 5 years of experience. My bilingual skills allow me to make communication possible between Hispanic patients with limited English proficiency and health professionals. I also have around 5 years experience in customer service, not only in the medical field but also in the food service industry, where I gained the necessary skills to address peoples needs and concerns.
I am an enthusiastic and goal-oriented professional who is always willing to learn new skills and can easily face any challenges that may arise. I have a Bachelors in Business Management. I am a native speaker of Spanish and am highly proficient in English.
