About Me

Hi, I’m Carolina. Nice to e-meet you! A little about me:

  • My experience as a Certified Spanish Medical Interpreter has provided me with a great platform to learn specialized terminology and the system of diverse healthcare settings as well as all matters within the Worker’s Compensation system (medical-legal cases). During my day-to-day at work, I learned that simply communicating languages is not enough; it is important for healthcare professionals to understand and appreciate different cultures as well as different backgrounds to be able to provide appropriate and cultural healthcare.
  • I hold a Certificate in Medical Interpretation from the Southern California School of Interpretation as well as a Certification of Medical Interpretation credential with both the National Board of Certified Medical Interpreters and the Certification Commission for Healthcare Interpreters. I am currently enrolled in a Court Interpreting program through the Southern California School of Interpretation as I aspire to become a Court Certified Interpreter in the near future. Honing my skills continuously within my professional fields is relevant to me. Thus, they are a key ingredient in keeping one step ahead of the constant evolution of this market and technological progress.
  • I am an active member in various Interpreting & Translations associations: American Translators Associations (ATA), National Council on Interpreting in Health Care (NCIHC), California Healthcare Interpreting Association (CHIA), Northern California Translators Associations (NCTA), Voices Academy, and the Communication Workers of America – Interpreters Guild of America (CWA-IGA). These associations keep me abreast to the best practices while embracing this life-long learning commitment.
  • As I make my way to the next step in my career, my passion for giving back to my community has motivated me to serve as a volunteer interpreter in several non-profits organizations such as the American Translators Association – Spanish Division (ATA), Global Voices, Arizona Translators and Interpreters (ATI), Kids in Need of Defense (KIND), California Dental Association (CDA), Blood Source and NCTA. This enables me to use my skills to give back to a profession and community that have been so good to me.
  • Originally from Córdoba, Argentina; an outdoors enthusiast and a true world citizen. I love my work and I put my heart and soul into every project; because nothing makes me prouder than empowering my clients to get their results.

Providing precise and professional language interpretation to help you improve your business communication and meet the challenges of a multi-lingual society. Commitment and professionalism may be assumed as self-evident. Attention to detail, discretion, quality, and punctuality are a top priority for me.

MISSION

Understanding that communication is an essential part of all individuals rights to have an equal opportunity for meaningful language access to participate effectively in our society is key for a successful outcome. I facilitate impartial, confidential, and accurate language access tailored to fit your needs. As a conduit of communication, I want your words to be heard and understood in Spanish. Furthermore, I am committed to providing exceptional and top-notch interpretation services abiding by the state and the National Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics for Healthcare Interpreters.

I envision to surpass the expectations of my clients while overcoming linguistic, and cultural barriers

My Passion Led Me Here
Culture

Culture

According to the 2011 American Community Survey conducted by the Census Bureau, in the United States, 60 million people (1 in 5 Americans) speak a language other than English in their home. Out of that 20% of the population, 9% are considered to be Limited English Proficient (LEP).

Linguistics

Linguistics

Presidential Executive Order 13166, Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency, directs recipients of federal funds to “examine the services it provides and develop and implement a system by which LEP persons can meaningfully access those services consistent with, and without unduly burdening, the fundamental mission of the [recipient].”

My Passion Led Me Here

Section 1557 is the nondiscrimination provision of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Section 6 of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 provides that “no person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color or national origin be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”
