“Recently I had the privilege of employing Rubén’s expertise at an international conference in the Metropolitano Stadium (Madrid) where he simultaneously translated from Spanish into English over a period of 3 days to an audience of more than 50,000 attendees. I truly appreciated his professionalism and diligence as well as the accuracy in which he utilised his language skills. The event was truly successful and was well reported on. On a personal note, I have always appreciated Rubén’s honesty, diligence and attention to detail in all he was given to do. He is loyal and appreciated by many of my colleagues. He is self-motivated and very accommodating, and a reliable, hard-working and dependable individual. I highly recommend Rubén for your organisation, as I know he will be a great asset to you.”

He is hard-working, focused and handles responsibility very well. On a professional level, I admire Rubén’s passion for languages and his ability as interpreter and translator. I have observed Rubén interpret talks from English to Spanish and Spanish to English at large educational conventions in London and Manchester on numerous occasions. I have always been very impressed by the advanced level of Rubén’s interpretation skills, which I believe surpasses the ability of most people I know in this profession.”

“I have had the opportunity of employing Rubén’s expertise as translation consultant for the Translation Services Department located at world headquarters in New York (USA). Recently, I travelled with Rubén across Spain for several translation projects into the regional languages of the country, and we have also worked together on translation projects for the many languages spoken in Malawi (12 languages) and the countries in Central America (135 languages). Rubén is a highly-organised, reliable and hard-working professional, always meeting the required deadlines on any given time zone. His deep passion for languages, translation and teaching, along with his attention to detail, language skills and expertise in the field, make him a proficient translator and translation consultant able to manage entire projects and convey his passion and commitment to the teams he trains. Personally, I would not hesitate for a second in contracting him again for any translation, interpreting or language consultancy projects. Rubén will be a great asset and team player for your company.”

We engaged Rubén for our conference in Singapore recently and I was truly impressed by his professional and high quality interpretation skills. He is an excellent interpreter, whether whisper interpretation, simultaneous or through a device. He was well prepared, diligent throughout entire days, and above all made an atmosphere where everyone felt comfortable and included. I will strongly recommend his services.”

Sanjana Acharya | Climate Justice Advocate, C40 Cities | Bengaluru, India


“I had the pleasure of sitting next to Rubén during the recent Singapore International Water Week conference, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. I was impressed with the linguistic precision and simultaneous interpretation for a Spanish speaker attendee. One of the aspects that impressed me about Rubén was his ability to handle highly technical discussions around climate change and flood mitigation with clarity and confidence. Whether facilitating or translating complex panel and group discussions in real-time, he ensured that communication remained seamless and accurate. His work was instrumental for dialogue and cooperation between different nationalities and languages. Rubén is very professional and dedicated to providing outstanding interpreter services.”

Clara Sidan | Assistant Director, Resilience and Public Works Department | Miami, USA


“I had the pleasure of working with Rubén during the C40 Summit at SIWW25 in Singapore, and I can wholeheartedly recommend him as an exceptional interpreter. From the very beginning, it was incredibly easy to communicate with Rubén —always available, clear and kind in every exchange. His professionalism, precision, and calm presence under pressure were truly impressive. He seamlessly facilitated communication across languages in high-stakes discussions, demonstrating not only linguistic excellence but also cultural intelligence and emotional sensitivity —a true bridge between people and contexts. It was a joy to collaborate with someone so dedicated, reliable, and kind. Thank you Rubén for your excellent work! I look forward to working with him again in the future.”
