Mary Lee Behar

Description

I have worked in the administrative, state and federal courts. I have covered over 1,500 legal, medical and miscellaneous appointments. I have also worked as an interpreter in conferences related to water, sanitation and hygiene (especially as it relates to menstrual health), food addiction, community supported agriculture, diversity & inclusion, education, human resources, safety in the work place, insurance benefits, fire safety, travel and hosting, personal development, IT, cooperatives, national parks, general assemblies, initiatives for world peace, and measures for protecting the environment. Currently, I am learning about AI tools and how to leverage them for optimal productivity with administrative tasks, marketing and job-preparation. I am also dedicated to growing and learning through my active participation in professional associations, regular work, self-study, classes, travel, and peer review in all my working languages (Spanish, Romanian & French).
