Lebenslauf

Professional Summary:


Hello and welcome! I'm Cailan Adams.

I was the person in honors Algebra class who finished the 'bellwork', classwork, and homework in the first 10 minutes so I could spend the rest of the class reading. One time the teacher took my book away, and I pulled another one out of my bag! When I decided to give up math formulas and trade them for grammar rules, I became the student who stayed an hour after class to talk to my favorite professor about Spanish. I will be a lifelong student, because I never get tired of learning something new.

I've translated over 400 songs from Latin American Spanish into US English and have edited over 100. Researching, learning, and translating slang from various countries is so much fun! This currently makes up the majority of my translation experience. This is appropriate for me; I have a great gift for memorizing song lyrics, my family does karaoke for just about every holiday, and I used to play the piano. Singing songs and analyzing the grammar within them has been a massive part of my Spanish study and practice.

I also have experience translating birth/marriage/death certificates, school transcripts, text messages for court, radiology reports, school surveys, video transcriptions, and more general content.

I enjoy decoding low-register texts and can help even with Spanish texts that have misspellings, grammar mistakes, or unusual/colloquial grammar. These challenges have appeared for me in songs, school surveys, and text messages for court.

My dream is to work in the creative/entertainment field and translate/localize video games, board games, comics, shows/movies, and songs.

I am learning Japanese to prepare for game localization!

I am seeking more work to continue gaining experience and would treasure opportunities where I can be paired with an experienced colleague, editor, or mentor. (Adopt me! I am friendly, collaborative, and on-time.)

I hold a Spanish and Translation certificate from the Metropolitan State University of Denver and a General Studies A.A. degree from Valencia College in Florida. (If you hire me, you'll be helping me save up for a Bachelor's degree!)  I own and use a 2024 Trados Studio license.

I have Subtitle Edit.

I do not use Gen-AI and am not open to MTPE assignments.

Please send me a message if there's anything I can do for you or if you'd like to chat. Thank you!
