I translate English, Spanish, and French stories for bilingual editorial and cross-cultural audiences.
ColombiaWhat I'm looking for
I conduct artist interviews and write editorial features for an independent zine project, moving between English- and Spanish-speaking contributors. I translate quotes and cultural context for a bilingual readership while adapting tone, register, and idiom.
I've also managed bilingual client communication and creative briefs for branding and advertising photography projects. My work connects photographers, musicians, organizers, and clients across language and cultural lines.
At Dana Lee Brown's Vancouver studio, I supported shoot logistics, managed Shopify orders, and organized website content for an internationally facing studio. At The Hive Climbing, I oversaw front-desk operations, team scheduling, and training for a multilingual customer base.
My background also includes guiding Arc'teryx customers through technical product information and creative training in Adobe tools, 3D design, textiles, and digital environments.
