Presenter Biography:

Tabatha King and Hilary Wagner have become a dynamic duo with a combined 25 years of experience in the field as professional interpreters in a variety of settings. The pair have been able to apply such skills to cruise interpreting, coming in at a whopping 80+ sailings between them. Their work has taken them from solo assignments to teams of 100+ interpreters, with opportunities to step in as a designated lead interpreter for group settings along the way. Be it rocking out with musical performances, or providing access to laughs at the comedy club; these two are ready to snorkel, zipline, or interpret while walking backwards if the need arises. From their time onboard, not only do they have a list of tips and tricks to share, but also the soft skills to navigate the “rough waters” between passengers, crew, and entertainment.
