One Translator – Your Solution


Dear Prospective Client,

I am here to share with you 24 years of expertise in the industry: I can do the same as the big companies, but faster and at a lower rate. You'll have one single, accountable individual, instead of an unidentifiable string of middlemen and middlewomen.

In me you'll find someone who is really dedicated to provide a prompt response via email, whether I'm at my home office or on the go, even during weekends.

Also, you'll find in me someone who cares about her mother tongue: SPANISH. I will not use terms that have been stolen from English and then shoehorned into my target language, SPANISH. I will not pay heed to the "voices from the street" if there is an equivalent term that has been approved by the Real Academia de la Lengua. I will thoroughly research every term in your document, and will be able to attest to the correct placement of every comma and of every accent.

I’m certified by the American Translators Association in my language pair (English -> Spanish) and also hold a college degree in Translation.

In addition, you can see in my profile that 33 of my clients have already taken the time to manifest their enthusiasm for the translations that I've provided. I hope that you'll be next!

Recently, I earned a certification in Literary Translation as well, so I'm open to commissions in that field, that will never be assailed by machines.

Please inquire for details, references, and samples of my work.



Additional personal info:
I was born in Valparaiso, a town along the coast of Chile, on the Southwest of South America.

I became a full-time professional translator from English into Spanish in 1990, received a degree in Translation from the Universidad Arturo Prat in 2005, and was certified by the ATA for this pair also in 2005.

I adore CATs of all colors and shapes. My favorite is Trados, but I'm willing to live and work with any and all of those adorable creatures. >^..^<

I believe that a real, thriving culture is no longer to be found in opera houses, museums, or theaters, but is being created in the technological arena and now lives in our computers, phones, scanners, vehicles, and gadgets. Thus, I specialize in IT, Telecommunications, and Medicine, 3 areas that have fascinated me since forever.

Here at ProZ, I hope to build a working relationship with my colleagues and clients that will extend through the years as we help each other expand and prosper in our businesses.

My preferred payment option is via wire transfer/check, but online money transfer systems will also work.

I'll be happy to reply to any and all inquiries. Also, you can request a test translation of your project at no cost. Ask me for a translation quote now!
