What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue delivering accurate English-to-European Portuguese financial and legal translations in regulated, quality-focused environments.

I run TAM Translations, delivering English-to-European Portuguese translation and revision for regulated financial, legal, fintech, and investment environments.

I translate and review KIDs, prospectuses, fund reports, compliance policies, legal agreements, terms and conditions, and privacy documentation for clients including Nexo, Capital.com, eToro, iBanFirst, WallStreetDocs, Apple, and international translation agencies. I work closely with project managers and reviewers to resolve terminology and regulatory interpretation issues while meeting tight deadlines.

I use memoQ, SDL Trados Studio, XTM, Verifika, and Xbench, and bring a Marketing Management background that supports context-aware work in finance and law.
