Bio

I hold a BA
(Portuguese-French) from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro - UFRJ, but specialized in English as a second language. I am a Portuguese native speaker. 

I have been working with localization
and translation for over 20 years, both as in-house and remote professional/vendor. I also hold a postgraduate degree in Conference Interpreting from PUC-RJ (Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro) and have good experience as on-site and remote simultaneous/consecutive intepreter. 

I currently work with translation-localization as a vendor for LSPs such as RWS
Group, Translator Legal and Financial Spain, Lionbridge, Jonckers, MZ Group
Latam.  I also work as onsite and remote conference interpreter for many clients such as Languages Canada, Lexikeet and GLOBO (US).
