On my blog LearnLanguagesFast.com, I share the strategies I use to learn multiple languages, and the resources and tools that make it easier.

Deaf people often experience an isolation and disconnect from information and relationships with the hearing community. As an interpreter, I bridge this gap, minimising the impact of deafness on both the Deaf and hearing person/s in interactions, facilitating both groups interactions and removing barriers. 

I interpret both autonomously and in teams in educational, medical, religious, business, employment and conference environments. I proactively anticipate customer needs, and advocate with service providers to work in a team with the Deaf and myself to create accessible environments for Deaf people.

I am skilled in writing, workshop facilitation, negotiation, report writing, secondary research, financial projections and strategic thinking.

With extensive experience in culture & languages, in addition to marketing & business, communication is my specialty.

I am a team player who exercises empathy for my co-workers and customers, and become energised as I successfully use my problem-solver skills to create customer satisfaction.
