After coming to U.S.A. and doing a number of things, I started working as a per diem court interpreter, (July 1992), in the Nassau County first district court in Hempstead, Long Island.
In time, the occupation that I started as a part time job improved through good service and referrals and became a business. Started working with the Federal Courts in 1994, translated a lot of documents, transcribed and then translated a lot of tapes when I first started. (Recently they turned to CD's.) Today, I am working in all New York and New Jersey State and Federal courts as a per diem interpreter. Also doing written translations, editing, tape transcriptions, simultaneous seminar and deposition interpreting, medical interpreting and medical translations.
I also work as an escort interpreter. I work for private law offices, translation agencies and Government agencies as a freelance independent contractor.
I work as a conference interpreter in the US since 1995 in all possible subjects. I work for the Federal Court System and have lot of experience interpreting patent litigations in the US and overseas. Travelling does not pose a problem. I work into and out of English, French, German and Dutch.
