About Stellar Pro Interpreting
​
Stellar Pro Interpreting was founded in 2022 by Manolo Solis in Kansas City, MO in response to the need of interpretation services in the area.

About the Founder
​
As a 10-year-old boy, Stellar Pro Interpreting founder Manolo Solis was on his first flight from Dominican Republic to Miami, FL. During the flight the attendant approached him with a cart full of drinks and asked him a question. He was confused. Lost. He didn’t speak English. What was she saying to him?! A lady traveling next to Manolo then told him in Spanish "di aple” (meaning: "say apple", but with a bad pronunciation). Manolo then looked at the flight attendant and repeated the word “aple”, with a bad pronunciation. The flight attendant noticed his struggle and she proceeded to ask him: “apple?” That’s when he learned his first English word. With just one word the flight attendant taught him the importance of breaking the language barrier.
​
Since then, he grew up with a passion for promoting unity and helping people, with over 20 years of experience in community outreach work. In 2007 he graduated from Northeastern University with a Bachelor of Arts in Human Services. In 2014 he began helping the community break the various language barriers while working as a Spanish Interpreter for various hospitals and healthcare systems, and several U.S. based government agencies, such as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS-USCIS), ICE, INS and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In 2022 he obtained his CHI™ certification.
​
In 2021 Manolo received a call from an unknown woman. The woman said: "Mr. Manolo, you interpreted for my parents at the hospital. I found your number and wanted to ask you if you can please be the interpreter for their upcoming U.S. Citizenship test." After Manolo received this call, Stellar Pro Interpreting was born.
