Presenter Bio
Sabrina has been an interpreter since May 2019. She has been a change agent, champion for diversity, speaker and community organizer since 2006. In 2020, she recognized the need to develop a platform where a multicultural group of people could get together to talk. The goal was to have open and honest discussions about the issues surrounding race relations in America. Through her work as an interpreter Sabrina decided to share her knowledge and experience with interpreters as a way to bring awareness to the field.
Sabrina hosts and leads monthly Mindful Discussions which is a platform focused on building a community where people of all backgrounds engage in understanding the importance of their actions.
