Some jobs… you would pay to do them!!!
Some jobs… you would pay to do them!!!
I have been working as a simultaneous interpreter since 1992, and my very first assignment was none other than the Barcelona Olympic Games. I was proud to be part of such a historic event, as it allowed me to combine my passion for both sports and my profession.
In my early years, I found myself wanting to be every professional whose world I entered from the interpreting booth. Enthralled by the excitement of the athletes representing us, I dreamed of becoming an Olympic sailor. Another day, I returned home determined to be the best coach. A respected pediatric surgeon. The most efficient orthodontist. A renowned publishing director. A stairlift manufacturer. A high-fashion model. A driver on the new metro line. An actress, a sculptor. A nurse. A President of a board of directors.
I quickly realized that pursuing so many professions, no matter how fascinating they seemed, would be impossible. Instead, I chose to embrace the privilege of giving voice to the remarkable individuals I have had the honor of interpreting for, carrying a piece of each one with me.
I cannot deny that every client I have worked with has left a lasting impression on me, enriching both my personal and professional growth.
