I can't recommend Hisham enough in regards to his abilities to interpret! I deal with over 9000 vendors across the Nation and rarely does one stand out among the group. Hisham however is kind, understanding, flexible, intelligent, professional and all around outstanding. We know any time that we send him on an assignment that we have nothing to worry about!

Ralph Achenbach

I most highly recommend Hisham without any reservations whatsoever. Hisham exemplifies the highest level of professionalism with the utmost sense of integrity, service and accountability. Working with Hisham as an interpreter was a wonderful experience, and he continuously impressed through his outstanding level of skill and technical expertise in this difficult area - to the point that I added technical terms to my own vocabulary in English! Hisham was always extremely dependable and detail oriented. Throughout my work with Hisham, he also proved to be a most wonderful cultural navigator, who is very sensitive and able to speak effectively to a variety of audiences. I know he will be an invaluable asset to any organization so lucky to work with him.
