Translation in French (France) into English, Russian into English, German into English, and English into French (France).

My longest project so far has been a 7-month French proofreading contract with WorldBook Encyclopedia. It gave me the chance to use one of my best skills - research. Advertisements and other tricky texts are no problem, as I am very creative with words (though only when necessary!)

Translation in English into Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Spain) into English, and English into French (France).

I translated the N-400, or U.S. citizenship application into Spanish and conducted the final review for applicants submitting their applications to the government for World Relief. I have also translated for a Medical Clinic, taking a call and translating a medical prescription, verbally, into Spanish. In today’s cross-cultural world, I believe accurate translation is imperative. Translating well involves more than merely translating words, it effectively means transmitting ideas. Effective communication is a two-way street that involves articulate, nuanced expression from one party to the other in a way that makes sense to the other.
