Still recovering from a sore throat because it was so cold in Portland 🤧 , but I am so thankful for attending the American Translators Association's conferences! AKA #ATA65. Meeting so many incredible and kind people was truly an eye-opening experience! Huge thanks to the organizers for creating such an amazing event. I’m excited to put into practice everything I learned here. The beautiful memories of Portland—its vibrant fall leaves, delicious Thai food, and tree-filled streets—will stay with me for a long time 🍂🌳. Special thanks to all the translators who took the time to share their experiences and advice with me. It means a lot! 🙏 Thank you, #ATA65 and Portland! Keep Portland Weird! 🎉

🌟 ATA65 was truly unforgettable! From inspiring sessions to festive Halloween fun, we celebrated our shared passion for translation and interpreting in the best way possible. 🎃👻 This year’s conference brought us together not just to learn and grow, but also to reconnect with old friends and make new ones along the way. 🙂 The mix of costumes and conversations created an atmosphere that was as educational as it was memorable. Seeing everyone—from seasoned professionals to newcomers—come together so wholeheartedly reminds me just how special our community is. As a Board Member, I couldn’t be prouder of this incredible association and the connections we build.🙏❤️ Here's to many more years of learning, laughing, and supporting each other!
