Following a career in diplomacy in Thailand, I brought my Mien language expertise to the United States and began offering professional interpretation services.

As a professional Mien interpreter, I serve the education sector, supporting IEP meetings, parent-teacher conferences, school enrollment processes, and special education evaluations. I ensure Mien-speaking families fully understand and participate in their children's education.

My approach combines linguistic precision with genuine cultural competence — I do not just convert words between Mien and English, I ensure the full meaning and intent are preserved.

Military service stationed me around the world, but it was my Mien heritage from Vietnam that ultimately led me to a fulfilling career as a professional interpreter.

Backed by 11 years of experience and a deep respect for accuracy, I deliver Mien interpretation services that clients trust for their most consequential communications.

Studying at Chiang Rai Rajabhat University gave me the formal training, but it was growing up bilingual in Chiang Rai, Laos, that gave me the instinct and cultural fluency I rely on every day as a Mien interpreter.

I am a certified Mien interpreter specializing in family law and child welfare cases, providing interpretation for custody hearings, CPS investigations, adoption proceedings, and domestic violence cases. Sensitivity and accuracy define every assignment I accept.
