Message

At Keywords Studios, I translate, edit, and perform linguistic QA for AAA, mobile, and live-service games in English to Latin American Spanish. My work spans in-game text, UI, live content, marketing, narrative, and audiovisual materials, including Call of Duty, F1 Manager, and Monument Valley III.

At S2 Lingua, I’ve translated, edited, and proofread more than 5 million words of healthcare content, with current assignments focused primarily on proofreading. I review materials such as clinical research documents and patient-facing content for accuracy, readability, and suitability for Latin American Spanish audiences.

I also review live-service gaming content at SoundMap and edit global marketing, educational, and technology content at Lilt, where I created style guides and glossaries and contributed to winning more than five client accounts. Earlier, I translated comics for Marvel Comics / Ovni Press Argentina and taught English for Specific Purposes at Universidad del Salvador.
