Brazil
Message

At Sombra Literária, I worked as a freelance proofreader, and since 2024 I’ve worked with Substack Tinteiro em Chamas as a proofreader, text editor, and critical reader. My editorial work includes fiction, short stories, and chronicles for self-publishing and independent authors.

For Tinteiro em Chamas, I review and prepare digital content. I’ve also reviewed informational, technical, and advertising material for digital publication.

I studied translation and interpreting at Universidade São Judas Tadeu and completed a specialization in text editing and proofreading at PUC Minas. Alongside editorial work, I have experience in translation, writing, copywriting, and administrative tasks such as schedule planning, creating standard operating procedures, and content prioritization.
