@daniellacastanheira
I translate and subtitle Spanish–Brazilian Portuguese content while leading multilingual teams and customer experience operations.
What I'm looking for
I've translated and subtitled Spanish–Brazilian Portuguese content freelance since 2006, including literary, academic, corporate, and audiovisual work.
My projects include subtitle translation and editing for Reshape, training-material translation for Globspot, and Portuguese and Spanish subtitle quality control for Deluxe Spain during Netflix's market launch.
As Web Translation Team Lead, I organized, onboarded, and recruited translators in Brazil and Portugal, created process documents and protocols, and developed strategies to meet monthly objectives.
I've also worked in customer experience for Colvin, maintained Portuguese client databases for Neumáticos Andrés, taught Spanish, and produced corporate and gastronomy events.
