Heartsong interpreting’s mission is to provide quality interpreters that take pride in the equivalent interpretations of the situations they are interpreting. We strive to bring the audible to life in a visual format with quality, ethics, and skill. Communication from our heart to yours.”
Heartsong Interpreting’s name came out of a childhood experience. Growing up, Kyla, the founder, was involved in theater and music from a young age. Singing and performing changed the energy and feelings around her. One day a friend of her mother mentioned that she noticed the change. Sitting down with Kyla, she explained that the shift in energy was because she had found her heartsong. When asked for a definition, Kyla was told: “A heartsong is something that you do that resonates so deeply within your heart and soul that your heart feels like it is singing.”
Providing access to the magic of stage and concert performances, ensuring equal access for all functions/events, and taking a personal approach to our professional work makes our interpreters extremely happy. Providing equity in communication and access has become our heartsong. Heartsong Interpreting is proud to hand pick their interpreters based on the quality and skill of their work. We challenge our interpreters to continue to work on their craft enabling them to provide the level of interpretations our consumers expect.

I am so impressed with the sign language interpreters over the weekend. They were the stars of the show! Thank you for everyone’s hard work, they all smashed it. They did a great job every one of them. I videotaped and turned off the sound. I could truly feel the music! So inspiring, thank you all! Xo”

Overall, I had a great time at the convention. The panels were very interesting and the
interpreters were very fun to watch. I also learned a few new signs to add to my list and a few
signs I didn’t know that could mean certain things. I learned a lot by being an observation
student and I feel that this event inspired me to continue my studies in interpreting.”

Thank you so very much for all of your hard work at and for the conference. To Kyla and Tabatha, you ladies were a total joy to work with, despite the logistic and contractual craziness. To all contracted interpreters, thank you for your willingness to interpret this conference. LTC was so pleased to partner with & be represented by you! I just wanted to send this little note to let you know that your efforts & all the details that you take care of behind the scenes do not go unnoticed. We look forward to and are excited about working with you more in the future!”
