"En casa del Ciego, el Tuerto es Rey..." I can help you correct translations from English to Spanish and vice-versa. Since literal translations do not always carry the same message, please take into account that even within a country, the same sentence can have different meanings.

Experience in the area

I use both Spanish and English on professional and personal levels. I was exposed to both languages and cultures since I learned to speak. I currently spend equal time between Mexico and the US.

Education/Credentials

Professional Degree, MBA.
