Profile

I specialize in translation, transcreation, localization, review and proofreading of creative content, but also have quite a knack for the medical field due to past academic choices. My greatest strength and motivation is making texts in English sound like they were originally written in Brazilian Portuguese. Also, having grown up in the USA and achieved top marks in the Cambridge English: Proficiency exam, I feel very comfortable working the other way around as well.

I'm a reliable perfectionist that prides himself on being organized and committed to meeting deadlines and goals.
