About me
I'm a native Portuguese translator working from English and Italian.

I worked in a publishing house as an editorial assistant, being responsible for the foreign rights management, which has enabled me to improve a lot my language skills.

After one and a half years working in-house in a translation agency, where I had the opportunity of working with all kinds of texts, I am working full-time as a freelancer in Rome, since November 2009.

I have been working regularly (translation, proofreading and transcription) with several agencies, private companies and publishing houses, from countries such as USA, Japan, Italy, Austria, Ireland, Spain and Portugal.

I work in partnership with an Italian colleague, offering Portuguese into Italian translations as well.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for any additional information.
