Athena holds a BA in Spanish interpreting and translation from Rutgers University and a Master’s in Conference Interpreting from Glendon College, York University. In the past decade, she has worked as a freelance interpreter and staff interpreter for the NJ judiciary.
She owns Athena Sky Interpreting and trains candidates for the state and federal interpreting exams. She created these Master Classes with Virginia in order to give people the accountability and guidance she wishes she could have had when studying for her exams. When she is not teaching and interpreting, you may find her practicing Acroyoga or aerial arts.
Virginia is our behind-the-scenes mastermind. She co-developed the original Master Classes with Athena. You may occasionally see her for a guest visit, and you will see her magical slides and pedagogical concepts everywhere you look!
Virginia became an interpreter in 2003 and has worked in the fields of legal, medical, and conference interpretation. She holds a Combined Certificate in Translation and Interpretation Studies (Hunter College, 2004). In 2012, Virginia and her husband, Brad Wilk, founded Interpretrain. She currently lives in Colombia, where she teaches, develops new materials, and works as an interpreter.
