Terry Waltz

Description

I provide translation services (in written form) from Chinese and Spanish into English; oral interpretation from Chinese, Spanish or English to Chinese (Mandarin) or English (Asian language interpreters commonly work in both directions) in simultaneous and consecutive modes.

Please note: I do NOT translate into Chinese for written work. It is necessary to list English>Chinese as a combination as the ATA does not distinguish translation combinations from interpreting (oral) combinations.


I do not provide written translations into any language other than English unless this is the client's express and informed wish.

On-site deposition and client interview work with insurance adjusters throughout the Upstate New York area (Kingston to the Canadian border).
Translator since 1987 and conference interpreter since 1995, specializing in technical/engineering fields and business/trade. I own and can provide mobile IR simultaneous interpreting equipment.
