My work has taken me across continents, from Portugal to South Africa, where I reported on significant events such as the death of Nelson Mandela. My role as a correspondent has honed my ability to deliver accurate and compelling coverage across various media platforms.
In addition to my journalism career, I have also worked as a freelance translator, converting complex documents from English to Portuguese for diverse industries. My translation work spans travel agencies, legal documents, and the fuel sector, showcasing my versatility and attention to detail. I take pride in ensuring that the essence of the original content is preserved while making it accessible to Portuguese-speaking audiences.
