Jackie began working for Argo one year after it started operations. She graduated from Northwestern with a Masters in Broadcast Journalism. The translation world was a whole new industry to her. However, she quickly learned that it was one of those silent, behind-the-scenes necessities that was very important for many industries. Jackie started as a sales representative and realized that just about every type of business needed translation or interpretation, whether they manufactured trucks, bath mats or chocolate. Either their product was going to sell overseas, or their employees were of a foreign-speaking background and needed corporate documents translated. Fifteen years later, Jackie is still with Argo and has seen the industry continue to change and grow. In that time, she got married and had a son. In her “free” time she likes to read and bike and just hang out with family. Jackie’s favorite thing about working at Argo is the fun, laid back atmosphere, and, she agrees with Rosalie, the chocolate bowl!
