Bio

I am an Architect, an English Teacher and a Translator. I live in Uruguay. I'm married and have 2 children. My native language is Spanish.

During my years of study at Architecture University, I also studied English, became a Teacher and worked as one.

After getting my Architect Degree and having my children, I continued working as a freelance professional in Architecture, and also started working as a freelance Translator (English - Spanish).

Translating is an activity I particularly enjoy, and allows me great flexibility. Currently I’m attending a course of Diploma in Translation at International House, to complement my specific formation in that area. My English language knowledge is advanced, as well as my IT skills.

My actual purpose is to enhance this field of work and consolidate it as a full time activity.
