About me: I am a NAATI certified translator, proficient medical writer and a medical research scientist. I am a great copywriter, with numerous articles published in medical journals. I am fluent in Portuguese and English as I lived 14 years in Brazil and over 20 years in Australia. I want to put my writing and bilingual skills to good use and translate!
Translation experience: Most of my experience is in medical and pharmaceutical translation. Nevertheless, my skills are transferrable and can be applied to other areas! I am able to translate ~3000 words/day and review/proofread ~7000 words/day.
Background: As an undergraduate I did freelance technical translations for Ferrostaal (Brazil) and was also an EFL teacher at Greenwhich Schools (Brazil). I then moved to Switzerland, for a year, where I worked as an aupair (Horgenberg) and a waitress (Greifensee) while I studied German. I then returned to Brazil and worked as an EFL teacher at Rizvi International schools while I was studying for my BSc degree.
I graduated as a Bachelor in Biological Sciences (Brazil), completed a PhD in Medicine (Australia) and then obtained a Diploma in Translation (Australia).
