Bio
I used to do short translations even when I was studying. Then, as soon as I got my degree, I started applying for jobs and so it's about 8 years I am translating and editing texts. I had a lot of fun while working on some big projects and I can't wait to do more! 

Over the years I collaborated with different companies working in different fields and often I got, and still get, new tasks from them because they know I am efficient, quick, and always respect deadlines.

I translated and edited a wide range of different texts: videogames, poems, dialogues, religious texts, manuals, commercials, contracts... 

I want to keep improving and I consistently push myself out of my comfort zone. 
I am used to mentally "fix" wrong translations I meet on a daily basis reading online articles, subtitles, books, and more. 

My goal is always to do my very best and meet the requirements of the client while never missing a deadline. I have a good sense of humor so I can translate puns and jokes very well. 

I read A LOT, so my vocabulary is rich enough to give me all the tools I need for an optimal translation. 

My friends and colleagues know I am reliable and they can count on my help when they meet tricky translations or just want my honest opinion about their work. 

I can handle intensive and long sessions of work and keeping a high quality of work. I LOVE translating, this is for me a dream job, so I always work with passion and enthusiasm.
