What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that values language skills and analytical abilities.

I am a dedicated freelance translator, proofreader and data analyst based in Barcelona, specializing in French, Spanish, English and Catalan.

I also work part-time as a Localization QA tester.

With over a decade of experience, I have honed my skills in translation and proofreading across various sectors, including marketing, tourism, and events. My work has allowed me to collaborate with notable companies, enhancing the quality and relevance of their content.

Previously, I served as a data analyst for Apple, where I focused on improving the functionality of Siri and the geolocation accuracy of Apple Maps. My analytical skills, combined with my linguistic expertise, enable me to approach projects with a unique perspective, ensuring that both language and data are handled with precision and care.

In addition to my translation and analytical work, I have extensive experience in office management, having coordinated events and managed administrative tasks for various organizations. I am passionate about continuous learning and thrive in environments that challenge my skills and foster professional growth.
