About Us

Welcome!

I am the founder and president of the company as well as the main Certified Translator.

I immigrated from Genova, Italy to Canada at a young age, and quickly became the first member of my family to be completely bilingual and fluent in both Italian and English. Translating and Interpreting for my family became an everyday task, and soon it became a natural and easy passion, which led me to obtain a B.A. Degree in Modern Languages with Hons. from Brock University, Ontario, a Membership with STIBC and ATIA, and registration with ICBC and the Court Services of BC, as well as experience in Legal, Medical, Business, Film and Technical translation fields.

Colombo Translation was founded in 2010, and over the years has become a distinguished name in the Legal, Immigration and Medical fields, synonymous with Professionalism and Excellence.

Alice Ungarini was inspired to start her company after living, visiting and working in various countries around the world, including Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Turkey, Morocco, Costa Rica and Argentina.  Working in the language field in Vancouver, she realized Translation is a necessary step in helping people communicate with one another and achieving their business or personal goals.
