Bio
As a linguist I have dedicated my career to efficiency in study and translation. I have taught primarily romance languages in three different countries and have done translation for my consulting clients. I prioritize accuracy and clarity thus making clear communication essential. 

Since I have been self employed for the majority of my career I am, out of necessity, self reliant and self motivated. A naturally developed ability to get projects done quickly and to a consistently high standard speaks for itself. That being said, I am no robot; I also pride myself in providing a fun and exciting work or classroom environment. One of my main hobbies is stand-up comedy and I really love bringing humor into my language passions as well. 

Whether you want to work with me for translation or learn a foreign language in one of my five-star rated online and personalized courses, I am sure you won't regret hiring me. I try to be as responsive and transparent as possible and am open to negotiating customized agreements.
