Alberto Aguilar - President and CEO

Originally from Peru, I came to the United States in 1983 as a young teenager.  With the love for travel and the desire to know other cultures, I also became aware of how easy learning languages was for me. My travels have led me primarily to multiple trips to Western Europe, the Caribbean, Mexico and other countries in South America, where I made long-lasting friendships. 

I came to the interpreting and translating business by accident. My education was more in the Political Science and Humanities fields. I attended high school in this country and obtained a university degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where I graduated with a BA in 1992. I decided to further my understanding of the interpreting field by obtaining a judicial Spanish interpreter certification in Wisconsin and I also hold a license to train novice medical interpreters from the Cross Cultural Health Care Program.

I believe in the professional attitude of medical and judicial interpreters who strive to bridge the language and culture gaps that exists between individuals from different backgrounds. I also believe in the continuous education of interpreters to improve and update their skills. 

The field of translations is very different from interpreting and we select only those individuals that are proven translators with certifications. It is imperative for our organization to employ translators who are fluent not only in their language pairs but also in the culture and field specification of our customers and their clients.

I founded this company with the desire to help non-English speakers in a caring and compassionate way and I will continue that mission providing opportunities for excellent interpreters and translators to continue that legacy.  Thank you visiting us, I am sure you will enjoy working with us.
