I'm a high-functioning autistic polyglot, obsessed with language learning.  I was born and raised in Toledo, OH where Arabs were the primary operators of neighborhood markets.   I began learning Arabic with them as a small child.  I studied Spanish and other languages independently.   I served in the U.S. Navy 2002-2006 as an Arabic linguist.  I've been working as a nurse(LPN) since 2011, but now I'm returning to my true passion, linguistics and languages.  So, I'm experienced with languages and translating.  I'm only new to the translating "industry".  While Spanish and Arabic are my strongest foreign languages, I'm ready to be challenged by jobs in other languages as I have a strong base in many.
