Karen H.

**PLEASE NOTE THAT HOURLY RATES ARE DIFFERENT FOR INTERPRETATION AND VOICE RECORDING. PLEASE ENQUIRE** I am fully bilingual (English/Spanish), being born in a multicultural family (mother from Puerto Rico, father from Ohio) and raised in Spain, where I obtained a B.A. in Filosofía y Letras (loosely translated as Humanities) with a major in Spanish. I have extensive knowledge of both spoken and written Spanish and English (grammar, spelling, punctuation, word usage, sentence structure), and thorough knowledge of the culture(s) of the people who speak Spanish in Latin America as well as of Castilian Spanish and the most broadly accepted usage of idioms and language style in these cultures. I can convey the meaning of the source language appropriately and in the clear, correct language (not word-to-word translation), I work within agreed timelines, and I take pride in my work. I work on an ongoing basis with several translation agencies, outsourcing companies, and private clients. I provide low cost, high-quality translation, with a fast turn-around time, and cover a wide variety of documents, including: • Employee Handbooks • Technical manuals • Specification sheets • User guides • HR /Policies and Procedures • Legal, Financial, Medical Documents • Personal Papers • Memoranda • School Projects • Reports • Newspaper • Books • Letters • Proposals • Resumes • Style Guides • Websites • Blogs • Magazine articles • Literature reviews • Flyers • Resumes • Oral presentations • Style Guides • Catalogues • Anything else you can think of INTERPRETATION OVER-THE-PHONE AND VOICE RECORDING
