Bio

EN/ES<>PT_BR translator that also offers Localisation, Transcreation and Subtitling services for Marketing and Communication Campaigns, Games, Corporate videos and e-learning, among others.

I am half Brazilian and half Spanish, I was born and raised in Brazil and most part of my life I spent there. I got a degree in Advertising & Marketing at Mackenzie University and worked in the field for over 10 years.

On 2011, in order to quench my thirst for knowledge I decided to move to Europe, precisely London, and attend a Diploma in Translation course at University of Westminster.

On 2016, aiming at learning a bit more about my Spanish background I decided to move to Barcelona, where I am currently based.
