I started my interpreting career at the age of 9 in Chicago, Illinois. While obtaining my B.S.Ed in Deaf Education, I supported myself by interpreting for fellow students in the University environment. Fresh from Illinois State University in 1988, I was offered a teaching position at the Model Secondary School for the Deaf in Washington, DC. After one year of teaching, I realized my interests and skills were better suited to the interpreting field. I interpreted full-time from 1989 until 2021 in the DC area. In 2024, having missed Virginia, I have relocated to Norfolk, Virginia.
Due to my years of life and interpreting experiences, I am uniquely qualified to interpret for, coordinate for, or advise you regarding your interpreting needs.
