Hello
My name is Jason Knapp and this is my company. I am a freelance interpreter and translator based in the Louisville, KY metro area. I specialize in legal/business, medical, and technical subject matter. Clients include private attorneys and law firms, state and federal agencies, and medical research institutions. I have interpreted in-person and remotely (RSI) for conferences in the insurance/reinsurance, commercial real estate development, automotive, petrochemical, labor relations, and economic development sectors. I am eager to put my skills and experience to work for you to help you achieve your goals.
My Story
For me, the journey began in the mid-90s when my love for travel and an interest in languages led me to study Spanish after spending a month traveling the Ecuadorian countryside. After that, I was hooked! After nearly 25 years of missionary and pastoral activity, and having lived or worked in 6 Spanish-speaking countries and territories and 4 U.S. states, I have developed a deep understanding of the diverse cultures of native Spanish speakers.
Since starting to work professionally as an interpreter and translator, I have built a reputation over the past 7 years for providing quality, transparency and superior service. My subject matter expertise in the legal, medical, and business domains is field-tested and approved by clients in the public and private sector. Here are some of my credentials:
​
✅ ATA Certified Translator ES>EN
✅ Certified Court - Federal (AOUSC)
✅ Certified Court - State (CA, CO, IN, KY, OH, OR)
✅ Healthcare/Medical Certified (CA, NBCMI)
✅ Administratively Certified (CA, KY)
✅ DOJ EOIR Qualified
In 2021, I earned a postgraduate diploma in Specialized Interpreting from the Universidad del Salvador (Buenos Aires).
I am actively involved in the profession as chair of the NAJIT Social Media Committee, a member of the ATA's Public Relations, Business Practices Education, and Mentoring Committees, and a member of AATI (Asociación Argentina de Traductores e Intérpretes).
