I work with major companies in different industries; Insurance, Financial Institutions, legal, Food and Beverage, Agriculture and Farming Industries, Health, Advertising, Sports (tennis, football, basketball) Government related Issues, and have also work for private individuals, jewelers, writers, doctors, architects, etc Other work experiences include simultaneous interpretation, proofreading, transcriptions, copywriting, graphic design and language teaching.
