I am a professional English/Brazilian Portuguese translator, reviewer, and editor with over 30 years of experience in technical, literary, multimedia, and business translation.

I hold a Postgraduate Degree in Technical Translation from Universidade de São Paulo and a Bachelor's degree in Languages (English and Brazilian Portuguese) from Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas. Two Certificates of Proficiency (Cambridge and Michigan Universities) further strengthen my academic background in English. My areas of expertise include: Technical Translation & Localization: IT, Engineering, Manufacturing, and Business content. Literary Translation: Young Adult fiction, Autobiography, and other creative works. Subtitling & Multimedia Localization: films, series, corporate videos, and gaming content. I am highly skilled in CAT tools (Trados, memoQ, Phrase, Smartling), terminology management, QA, and style guide creation. I am fluent in Brazilian Portuguese (native) and English (proficient). Core strengths: linguistic precision, attention to detail, problem-solving, and maintaining consistency across large, multi-translator projects. I am passionate about ensuring every translation preserves the voice and intent of the original content.
