Bio
I've always enjoyed studying Portuguese at school, but I thought it was just because it was my mother tongue and it was easy for me. When I decided to learn English, I saw it was a taste for language in general - which manifested itself in my choice of a mathematics graduation, known as a universal language.

Definitions aside, I found my path to translation the same time I reviewed promotional texts in Portuguese. I worked at an advertising agency in the financial sector, and I took a course in translation and started making room for what I really enjoyed doing - working with languages.


Since then I have done translations mainly in engineering, education, tourism and sustainability. Among the clients served are Cataratas SA, Itaipu, Itaipu Technology Park, Best Western Hotels and Hoper Educação.
