What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to the publishing industry through translation and editing, particularly in literature. I value opportunities to support literary promotion, work with books and authors, and help evolve the publishing market.

I translate subtitles and revise audiovisual content at PSB, bringing English and Portuguese language precision to media projects.

As a freelance translator and editor, I've translated website content for Indie Campervans, worked on a drinking game translation for 99 Plus One, and edited and translated a self-published book by Eduardo Pereira Medeiros.

My postgraduate training in media translation and current master's studies in Publishing Studies reflect the future I want to build in editing, copyright, literature, and design. I work with CAT tools, Trados, MemoQ, Spot, and Adobe InDesign to support accurate, fluent content.

Outside client work, I create literary content on BookTok and Bookstagram, promoting books, discussing genres and authors, and engaging with the reading community. I'm motivated by the chance to contribute to the evolution of publishing and translate and edit works I love.
