About me

My name is Sónia, I’m an European Portuguese native speaker and I've been working as fulltime, freelance, technical translator since 1995.

I have an university background in Chemical Engineering (as well as in Portuguese language) and for the last 11 years I’ve been doing translations in the fields of sciences and technology, mainly of patents and patent applications (more particularly patents on Chemistry, Pharmaceuticals, Polymers, Genetics, Biology, Medicine, Biotechnology, Oil and Petroleum, and Agriculture (biocides and herbicides)). I also work in the musical instruments area, translating and editing catalogs and manuals. In addition, I have training in translation for subtitling and voiceover.

My working languages are English, French, Spanish, and German, and I do translations from those languages into Portuguese.
I also proofread Brazilian Portuguese translations into Continental Portuguese.

I can or not use TRADOS to do my work – that’s up to the client.

I generally collaborate with two proofreaders: a chemical engineer (for the technical translations in this field) and a certified translator, who permit me to assure the delivery of great quality translations.

I’m currently looking for new challenges, and I’m free for long term collaborations.

I’m available for contact (and work!) at any time, either week days or weekends, so do not hesitate...
