Video Games & Apps, Transcreation & Marketing


I am a translator and proofreader with a flair for creative writing and the experience of more than a decade in the business. 


Foreign languages have always enticed me. 

Getting a message across, whilst tailoring content to a specific target audience became my mission.

I graduated from Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas - Universidade Nova de Lisboa in 2005. My university degree comprised a Major in Modern Language and Literature - English / German and a Minor in Translation Studies.

From 2005 on, I began working as a freelance translator. I have had the privilege of collaborating with diverse companies and clients from all over the world.


Areas of expertise:


Video games and apps: Translating and proofreading video games for computers, consoles, mobile phones, and tablets, as well as App Store and Google Play materials. Video game QA, “bug tests” and reports. 



Marketing: Adaptation of slogans, jingles and song lyrics for toy brands. Adaptation of leaflets and websites for household appliances. Adaptation of marketing campaigns for international fashion/food and drink brands, which included websites, TV ads, store materials, brochures, and storefronts.


Literary translations: Translation of literary texts - novels, children’s books, tour guides.


I also translate and subtitle corporate videos (agricultural and pharmaceutical industry).


Business Terms: 

Simply e-mail me with the material you need me to translate. 

Payment in 30 days via Paypal and/or bank transfer would be ideal.

C.V. and rates available upon request.


Currently working on: Translating and proofreading daily articles about technology, video games, apps and lifestyle for a worldwide company.
