WHY CHOOSE ME AS YOUR TRANSLATOR?
British born, my mother tongue is English and I am a native speaker of Portuguese with excellent writing skills and outstanding command of colloquial, technical and literary, linguistic nuance. I am also a fluent Spanish speaker with an educational background that spans three countries. I grew up in a bicultural environment, going back and forth between England and Brazil with strong emotional ties to South America. I was 9 years old when I moved to Brazil and I still remember what it was like to enter a new world and not understand how things worked and new cultures can be so different that it seems like an entirely new universe. Especially from the point of view of a child. I grew up in a bilingual home and by the time I graduated in a university in New York, USA, I have been translating ever since. Translating goes beyond translating words from one language to another, it is the art of bridging cultures, connecting human beings. That is the beauty of my work.
