About me

I am Javi Tazinafo, translator from English into
Brazilian Portuguese. Throughout my 14 years in Translation, I have helped many
translation agencies around the world succeed in their Brazilian Portuguese
projects, especially in the fields of Software/Website Localization, IT and
Marketing. You will find I have a full set of skills, ranging from capturing
the nuance of UI elements, the instructional nature of help topics and the
flair of promotional contents, as well as strong knowledge of CAT tools, which
help me to easily adapt to your workflow and carry out tasks smoothly and
prevent technical issues along the way. I may be a great match for your PtBr
projects and help you make an impression on your clients. Read on to see how
else I may suit your needs, and you are welcome to contact me if you'd like to
discuss your projects.
