Bio

I'm a creative, quality-focused freelance translator and proofreader (English into/from Brazilian Portuguese) with twelve years' experience helping people and companies communicate effectively in English- and Brazilian Portuguese-speaking markets through accurate, clear, and culturally sensitive translations.

I'm really good at understanding the nuances of language. I work to enable people and organizations to engage with those beyond their reach due to cultural barriers, by translating exactly what they mean to say in English and Brazilian Portuguese.

I also excel at making the written word accessible and easy to comprehend. To me, convoluted and imprecise writing is not only annoying, but leads to missed opportunities at best, and significant losses at worst. So, I do my absolute best to bridge communication gaps and ensure that my clients' words retain their soul in the languages I translate into.

Let's talk about how I can help you get your message across in English and Brazilian Portuguese!
