SAN FRANCISCO — Koy Saephan began working as a court interpreter to gain insight into the legal system before pursuing law school. For the past eight years she has worked as a certified Mien language interpreter in California courts.
Although Saephan is based in Sacramento, she often travels throughout the state to work in other counties because there are so few certified Mien language court interpreters.
