About Nexus Lingo Intelligence

NLI was founded by Tatiana Sonnikova, a professional interpreter and translator with over 30 years of experience in English-Russian interpreting and translation. Unlike large corporate agencies, Tatiana still actively interprets — she understands firsthand the challenges, nuances, and stakes of every assignment.

"We Understand"

Our motto captures everything we stand for. We understand the words, the culture, the context, and what's at stake. When a patient needs to explain their symptoms, when a defendant needs to understand their rights, when a parent needs to advocate for their child — we make sure they are truly understood.
