Christina's very energetic and enthusiastic. I enjoyed watching her grow from student to interpreter. She was so much like my reporting students. Wanting to excel and succeed quickly are traits interpreters also possess. I am fascinated by the differences and similarities between interpreters and CART providers.
Reporters have different theories to write one word or phrase.
Most interpreters use American Sign Language. Christina's role is to understand what's being said and communicate that to her client. If I don't understand what the client's signing or what the hearing person's voicing, I request clarification. During this interview, she was on-call. When Christina answers calls, she's usually one on one.
