Bio
Currently, I am a Virtual Assistant web & graphic designer in my own business. My website: www.officebusinessservices.com

I Taught Spanish at Rockland Community College in Monsey, New York for the Adult Continuing Education Department.

I worked in the Travel Industry - Hotels & Cruises for 3 1/2 years at the Front Desk & Reservations interpreting & translating French & Spanish as well as English. I Translated/Interpreted documents as well as provided General information for Travel agents, Groups & General clients.

Later on, I worked in Banking & Brokerage: i.e. Credit Lyonnais & also as an independent contractor at Spear, Leeds & Kellogg.

Credit Lyonnais: I was a Bilingual Administrative Assistant Translating various documents from French into English from French countries allover the world - for 6 years
most documents consisted of securities & letters

I have a web site to promote my own Translation business: www.translationsamerica.com

For two years, I worked in the school system with a very intelligent disabled child.

My interests really consists of my joy & expertise in Translating/Interpreting various kinds of documents, articles & any other appealing works out there for language assistance in French/Spanish.

I have personally traveled abroad to both Colombia as well as Guatemala to assist in bringing legal documents for adoption of infants back in 1981 & 1986. I went to the counselates in New York first to obtain these documents for signature from the adoptive parents in the states, then I went to these countries to bring the stamped documents to the embassies. After the natural parents of these children signed the documents,I proceeded to care for these infants on the airplane from the departure of these countries, until the arrival at the JFK airport in New York. At the point of immigration, the adoptive parents were able to see and pick up their new arriving adoptive infant with bright smiles on their faces.
