Bio
I am a native speaker of Brazilian Portuguese and of English, having learned this last language in my early teens, in the USA. I have a Bachelor of Arts from Universidade Federal Fluminense, 8 years of experience in localization, and technical translation, being the last 5 as a freelancer. I also have a Master's Degree in English Literature, also from Universidade Federal Fluminense, in Rio de Janeiro, and am currently enrolled in a postgraduation program for Translation Studies.
I master the most important CAT tools, and I am able to learn more, with no difficulty.
Translation, localization, editing, proofreading and transcription are the main tasks I can perform; other tasks can be performed, as needed.
