Hi, I’m a freelance translator working from ENGLISH and FRENCH into SPANISH.
While I started combining this with other jobs back in 2010, I was fortunate to be able to go full-time eight years ago. Most of the time, you’ll find me working on literary and history texts as well as subtitles, though I also work on beauty and marketing texts.
I love what I do. I believe in the power of words, and I take care to make sure each one feels at home in its new language. Quality matters to me, and it doesn’t matter how big or small the task is, this is something I never compromise on because language should always be a means of communication, never a barrier.
If you’re looking for someone who’s experienced, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about your project, I’d love to hear from you.
