Bio

Hi there! My name is Michael, and I've always been interested in languages since I was a child. Spanish has been a particular passion of mine, and I have studied it for around 13 years now. 

I have a degree from a Russel Group university in Spanish, Portuguese and Geography, giving me a well-rounded perspective on these languages and an in-depth knowledge of the international community.

I have been working as a freelance translator for 5 years, translating a wide array of texts, specializing in legal translation and medical translation. Furthermore, I have worked as an in-house translator at an agency in Malaga, translating legal texts to a very high standard. 

I have also lived and worked Portugal at the BPCC, giving me a deep understanding of the language.

I take great pride in my work, and always aim to produce the best possible translations to clients. I love the challenge of constructing phrases which both completely retain the sentiment of the original document, whilst simultaneously sounding absolutely natural in the target language. 

Keywords: Spanish, Portuguese, medical, legal, law, geography, social services
