Bio

Freelance Translation Services into European Portuguese

I am a freelance translator, native speaker of European Portuguese, with vast experience in providing linguistic services from EnglishSpanishFrench and Italian into Portuguese. These include translation, proofreading, software/web localisation, review, subtitling, DTP and audio transcription.

My academic background in engineering renders me particularly suited for technical translation - a task where a deep understanding of subject matter is of paramount importance; having served major companies worldwide in a plethora of technical fields. 

I am, for instance, the head translator and linguistic consultant for the European Portuguese language for prestigious clients such as Aston MartinDell or Storagecraft.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, please note that my exceptional writing skills and outstanding command of formal, colloquial, technical and literary linguistic nuance allow me to equally excel in addressing subject matters other than those of a technical nature.
