Having graduated in German translation, I began working in a Portuguese translation office as an in-house translator as well as project manager.
I have good command of CAT tools as Trados 6.5 and Transit XV, and some basic notions of Across, Logoport and SDLX.
In order to widen my knowledge I have started working as a freelance translator in October 2004 for offices in Spain, Germany, USA, Brazil and Portugal.
The strong qualities I believe to possess are organisation, responsability, pontuality, realiability, dedication, self-confidence.
To fulfil the translation assignments I possess a personal computer with the following characteristics:
Pentium IV, Ram 1.0 Gb, HD 160 Gb
Windows XP, MS Office 2003, Adobe Acrobat, Panda antivirus, Mozilla Thunderbird
Trados 6.5 and 7, Transit Satellite PE, SDLX lite
Broad band ADSL Internet connection
(I possess also a laptop with core duo, Ram 1.0 Gb, HD 120Gb...)
Enclosed is my curriculum vitae which will give you further details of my career to date.
