Johanna Gonzalez is a seasoned professional with over 11 years of experience in the language services industry. As the Co-CEO and Co-Founder of TLC Interpreting & Translation Services, Inc, Johanna plays a pivotal role in maintaining relationships with organizations and corporations as well as overseeing sales and marketing efforts.

Prior to founding TLC, Johanna worked as an independent contractor, providing interpretation services as a Certified Court and Medical Interpreter at various events including depositions, trials, city council meetings, medical appointments, and community gatherings. She also excelled as an Education Interpreter and Translator at the Pasadena Unified School District, where she facilitated communication between English and Spanish speakers at parent-teacher meetings, Individual Educational Plan (IEP) meetings, and school board meetings.

Johanna holds a Bachelor of Science in International Studies and Spanish from California State University of Long Beach, where she specialized in interpreting and translation.

In recognition of her entrepreneurial spirit, Johanna graduated from the City of Los Angeles Small Business Academy in 2018.

Outside of work, some of her hobbies include wine tasting, reading, cooking and walking with her two furry children: Buddy and Mia. Johanna also enjoys travelling all over the world with her husband and 5-year-old adventurous daughter. Fun fact: Johanna set a goal to visit 30 countries before turning 30! And with the help of her friends and family, who made the ultimate sacrifice to join her, she was able to mark that off her bucket list. She wants to someday travel to Japan, Fiji, Antarctica, and well, everywhere….
