Catalina has had the opportunity of living in four countries across four continents: Peru where she was born, Switzerland where she got her degree in Linguistics and got married, Hong Kong where she had her first child, and Delaware in the United States which she has called home since 2001.
In 2007, she got certified as a Court Interpreter by the National Center for States Court in the language combination English – Spanish, and immediately started a thriving and fulfilling career as an interpreter in school and legal settings.
Her love for the profession led her to teaching, first in the Master of Interpretation and Translation at La Salle University where she also developed curriculum and supervised Master Projects in Interpretation and Translation, and currently in her own online school of interpretation, Interpreter Success Academy.
She gathers from her knowledge of cultures and languages to inspire and educate the future generation of language interpreters, as well as from her years of experience as an interpreter and educator.
She has supported the profession in her roles as interpreter representative to the Delaware Court Interpreter Advisory Board, and as Delaware’s State Chair for the International Medical Interpreter Association.
She continues her personal and professional growth by tapping into her inner wisdom and creative source for more prolific work and thriving life.
