As professional translators and interpreters with over 30 years of experience, we believe that translating is both an art and a science.
Sheila Wilkin, our director, has been translating and interpreting between English and Spanish for over 30 years in Guatemala. She works on a wide range of topics—which in the past year has included food security, trafficking in persons, FAO international development projects, an ancestral Mayan celebration for UNESCO, staff training, disaster risk reduction, justice sector reform, and a 600 page book on the Guatemalan civil war.
