I am a freelance British Sign Language / English interpreter of 25 years’ experience. Since 2006, I have been an ASLI trained mentor and independent trainer. I undertake interpreting work across most domains. However, I do specialise in complex domains such as in the fields of Legal, Media (in-vision), Conference (platform) and Computer Training such as website design (UI/UX, Coding) including Computer Forensics.
