What I'm looking for

I am looking for freelance opportunities that allow me to apply my creative sensibility and language skills in dynamic environments.

I am a bilingual professional with over five years of experience in language services, specializing in interpretation and cultural localization. My journey has allowed me to work across various sectors, including legal, governmental, and corporate environments, where I have honed my skills in active listening and conflict resolution. I pride myself on delivering clear and culturally sensitive communication, especially in high-stakes situations.

In addition to my interpretation work, I am also a freelance music composer and recording artist. With over 15 years of experience, I have developed a unique ability to translate and adapt song lyrics between English and Portuguese, ensuring that the emotional tone and lyrical meaning resonate authentically in both languages. My background in music composition has equipped me with strong organizational skills and technical adaptability, which I apply to all my projects.
