About
I help healthcare organizations communicate clearly and accurately with Spanish-speaking patients.
As an English-to-Spanish medical translator and Certified Medical Interpreter, I bring more than nine years of experience within a Harvard-affiliated academic medical center. My clinical background gives me a practical understanding of how healthcare communication is delivered—and how patients use that information to make decisions about their care.
I specialize in:
• Patient education and health-literacy materials
• Discharge and care instructions
• Informed consent and participant-facing research documents
• Patient questionnaires and clinical communications
• Machine translation post-editing and linguistic QA
• U.S. Spanish healthcare localization
My experience includes translating, reviewing, and editing more than 100 healthcare documents; translating a 12-page clinical-trial consent form for a hospital urology research team; reviewing 100 AI-generated emergency discharge instructions; and providing linguistic QA for a patient questionnaire developed for a major pharmaceutical company.
I hold a Certificate in Advanced Translation Studies from UMass Boston and the CMI-Spanish credential. I am also a member of the American Translators Association.
I am especially interested in working with hospitals, academic medical centers, healthcare language-service providers, research organizations, and life-sciences teams that value clinical accuracy, patient comprehension, and thoughtful human review.
A translator who understands the clinical environment behind the words.
For English-to-Spanish medical translation, editing, MTPE, or linguistic QA projects, please connect with me or send me a message.
Here's what I can offer: Linguistic precision guided by clinical insight and cultural judgement.
