About me

I was a private ESL teacher while I studied Philosophy at the Universidad de la República, Uruguay. In 1994, I obtained a position as Teaching Assistant for the Logic and Philosophy of Logic Department. I continued teaching English while I pursued my academic career in Philosophy. I specialized in Logic and Argumentation Theory becoming an Associate Professor. During that time, I frequently translated papers for colleagues and was hired by several institutions and companies for the translation of business, technical and academic texts.
In 2005 my husband was relocated to Buenos Aires, Argentina where I worked as Secretary of the Teaching and Research Department of the German Hospital of Buenos Aires. Working in a Hospital’s IRB was a drastic change given my academic background in Philosophy. However, it introduced me into the world of pharmaceutical research and clinical trials. In 2006 I was certified as a Clinical Trial Coordinator and Monitor by SAMEFA.
In 2008 we moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida where I became a full-time freelance translator and proofreader.
I have translated many academic papers and books (Philosophy, History and Social Sciences); several were published and their authors thanked my work in the prologues. I have also translated technical manuals, business and marketing documents, QMS documents, training manuals and several articles from colleagues (mostly into English) for their submission to academic journals.
