What I'm looking for

I seek roles in localization or subtitling that emphasize quality, cultural accuracy, and collaborative workflows, with opportunities to grow technical skills and impact streaming or game content.

I am a Brazilian translator and localization specialist with extensive experience in subtitling, closed caption, proofreading, QC, and game localization. I translate from English to Brazilian Portuguese and have completed targeted courses in subtitling, dubbing, games, medical translation, and CAT tools.

My background includes practical training in TRADOS and subtitle editing tools, and I have worked with vendors and clients across streaming, localization, and dubbing industries. I bring hands-on experience with subtitle creation and quality control for media assets.

I have collaborated with established vendors such as IYUNO, TransPerfect, RWS Group, ZOO Digital, and others, and participated in Netflix Asset QC and related workflows. I emphasize accuracy, cultural adaptation, and technical compliance in localized content.

I am currently studying Library Information Science and continue to build my skills in creative writing and AI data tasks, seeking opportunities that value meticulous localization, quality assurance, and cross-media adaptation.
