“I am currently working the Information and Guest Services Desk at Hackensack University Medical Center. I absolutely love it and I am able to use all the skills that I have acquired in my Spanish courses while at Ramapo College.” “I use Spanish every day at work. Since many patients come in and cannot speak any English, they feel comfortable when they find out I speak Spanish. I try to use it as much as possible!

I feel it has made my job easier because I can understand everyone, and I am enjoying it. Speaking Spanish has made me feel like I am more culturally connected with all types of people, and I feel I understand people a lot more than I have in the past….I love everything about my experiences at Ramapo and Hackensack.” “I am currently part time, but I plan on working hard to get tofull-time and really make a career out of helping those who need me to be there to translate for and comfort them.”
