Bio

University of Arizona Alumni. Bachelor of Arts in Spanish Linguistics with a minor in Japanese Language. Trained translator and interpreter for Spanish to English and vice versa and am also trained academically and self-trained in additive manufacturing and rapid prototyping.

Before the pandemic, for around half a year, I volunteered in a hospice/organization called The Inn Project as an interpreter and hospitality volunteer for immigrant families seeking asylum in the US that we released from ICE detention facilities. Around 90% of the families that came in were from different regions in Latin America so I have experience with different dialects and forms of Spanish.

I look forward to meeting many of you!
