Bio:Within my academic expertise, I have concluded my 5-year university degree in Translation (Interpreters) by Technological and Management School of Higher Education of Leiria, where I acquired academic experience in technical translation, software localisation, subtitlin...g and consecutive and simultaneous interpreting. Through my experience in the European Commission in the field of "Law, citizenship, administration and external relations" I could develop my technical translation skills. In the Portuguese public broadcaster, I had the opportunity of subtitling for deaf and hard-of-hearing and of getting in touch with different realities. As in-house translator in Deltalíngua Lda. and in Indra Sistemas, I could acquire a more professional perspective of the translation market and improve my technical know-how.
I am also familiarised with the main CAT tools (TRADOS, SDLX, Passolo and Wordfast) and I consider myself to be hardworking and motivated to work at a multicultural dimension. In order to improve my abilities I had the opportunity to attend other courses and training sessions in other European countries as you may be able to see in my CV.
As freelance translator, I'm quite familiarised with legal texts, particularly contracts. I'm also used to translate engineering and electronic texts (particularly MP3s, TVs, DVDs, video cameras and other electronic equipment) and texts in several other fields such as Computer Science (Software), Automotive Industry (for Mitsubishi, Chevrolet and Nissan) or Industrial Equipment. Beyond the areas above mentioned, I usually work in Machinery, Automation, IT, Pharmaceuticals/Medicine and Law. I'm always connected to the Internet and I assure a prompt reply to your contact. I do accept payments by Bank Transfer, PayPal and Moneybookers. I would say my usual workflow is 3000/3500 words per day.
