Yei Tochtin is a craft consultancy house for agricultural initiatives, English-Spanish interpretation, translation & art projects.
We enjoy working on topics that are complex with the goal of presenting to larger communities for a social good.
We believe in collaboration, nuanced analysis and being thorough.
Yei Tochtin (YAY toatch-tin) comes from Nahuatl and it means 3 rabbits. Nahuatl is a language spoken in certain parts of Mesoamerica and Central America.
Three rabbits reflect our small business journey filled with creativity, empathy and intuition. We worked to capture the 3 in our logo.
Ali Toxtli is a public anthropologist with over 10 years working in areas of bike and pedestrian mobility, public health, food co-ops, public art and project administration.
He works with a network of similar minded language practitioners in the US and abroad.
Initiated in 2020, at that time called Multiservicio Multiservice, Yei Tochtin stemmed out of an idea to try something new. We began interpreting for political events in person and online in NYC thanks to the insistence of colleagues. Enjoying the feedback we received we continued and decided to provide services as a small business. We've enjoyed remote interpreting, meeting new clients and colleagues nationally and internationally.
To date we have worked with leading schools, philanthropic organizations, literary institutions and grassroots movements across the country from our base in New York state.
We work with clients to build up their efforts and knowledge of their audience. Estimates depend on event variables such as your internal multilingual management, budget, use of space and time.
