Bio

T L Vandergriff - Translator - Interpreter

A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY

My passion and carrier

Ever since I was a little boy I knew that I wanted to travel to different countries, learn new languages and experience a variety of cultures. So I studied Spanish at North Carolina State University, graduated in 2004 and moved to Bolivia in 2005 where I met my wonderful Bolivian wife and with whom we have 4 children.

During my university years, I also took up Portuguese and French, languages I currently work with.

In Bolivia I worked as an English teacher until 2010.  I had done quite a bit of volunteer translation and interpreting work during those years. However, in 2011 I started working as a freelance translator.

Since 2011, I have translated hundreds of thousands of words working with SDL Trados and MemoQ.  I have worked as a translator in many fields such as: business, legal, medical, tourism, open-ends, and many others.

I enjoy being able to use my language skills to facilitate the global community that we live in.
