I have been dedicated to translation for many years and doing "on the job" technical and business translations for decades.
As a "retired" business person, I completed an MBA (Masters in Business Administration) in Spain, and have completed NYU translation certification. I was owner/executive of a successful software and consulting company in California, as well as an ASP provider in Michigan. This experience gave me a thorough command of business, financial, and IT terminology.
I began doing translation work many years ago when we needed to translate user manuals from Swedish to English, and later from English to Spanish. However, my strength is Spanish to English. I am a full time translation professional with expertise in many areas of business and technology.
I am results oriented, and bring my projects in on time, whether they are large or small. I pay attention to detail and am a total quality advocate.
