I started my English studies very early in my childhood. After 12 years of intense learning of basic language and direct contact with English community in Uruguay, I passed all four-year official examinations at State University, highest degree of my country. I am an official sworn translator working professionally since 1985.
Before computer times, I devoted my efforts to increasing my skills in comprehension and decoding of linguistic issues, with special emphasis in client-oriented services. Now, with its advent, I became proficient in different fields and tools that allowed me to grow both as a translator and as a human being.
Thanks to Quality Management Studies, acquired through LSQA, I have developed a fruitful and respectful relation with clients. I think this is my most important added value: I like and I know how to talk to clients and how to make them be part of my team in regard to their translations. I consider myself a most important partner when talking about their projects, not just a mere translator.
