Bio

Me fascinan los idiomas... talvez porque crecí hablando varios (cantonés en casa, inglés en la escuela y español con mis amiguitos del vecindario). A los 30 años tuve la oportunidad de trabajar en Japón por siete años. Allí aprendí a escribir, leer y a hablar japonés y a traducir documentos del Inglés al Español.

Luego, al mudarme a los EE. UU. estuve unos años interpretando los sermones dominicales del Inglés al Español para luego terminar trabajando como traductor e intérprete en el bufete del Defensor Público en North Carolina.  Ahora estoy trabajando como intérprete judicial en Maryland.

I'm fascinated by languages ... maybe because I grew up speaking several while I was growing up (Cantonese at home, English in school, and Spanish with my neighborhood friends).

When I turned 30 I had the opportunity to work in Japan for seven years.  There, I learned to write, read and speak Japanese and to translate documents from English to Spanish.

Later on, when I moved to the USA, I started to interpret our church services from English to Spanish and eventually ended up as a translator and interpreter for the Public Defender office in North Carolina. I'm currently working as a Certified Court Interpreter in Maryland.
