Bio

I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and my native language is Portuguese.

My academic background includes:

    • Technical Secondary School in Electronics

    • Bachelor in Computer Science

    • Extension in Systems Analysis

    • (Not to mention six semesters of Electronics Engineering…)


Professionally speaking, I’ve been working for the past 30 years in the following areas:

    • Computer Maintenance

    • Computer Programming

    • System Support

    • System Development

    • Systems Analysis

    • Business Analysis


Regarding language knowledge, these are my qualifications:

    • Portuguese — Native language 

    • English — Fluent

    • Spanish — Upper Intermediate

    • French — Intermediate


I started studying English when I was a kid. I’ve attended 6 ½ years of live classes and have always dedicated a considerable amount of time to honing and applying my knowledge of the language.

Recently I also got involved with copywriting, became a member of the American Writers & Artists Inc – AWAI, where I’m constantly in contact with the most qualified professionals in the copywriting industry. I’ve had some good experience in that area and was able to develop some work writing the following (both in English and Portuguese):

    • Autoresponder/follow-up emails

    • Landing pages

    • Websites

    • Newsletters


Some of my additional competencies include:

    • Trustworthiness & Ethics — Attention to client’s necessities and respect for required confidentiality

    • Self Management — Optimization of time and resources for smooth execution of the job

    • Attention to detail — Pursuit of excellence to meet or exceed the client’s expectations


Putting it all together, I’m ready to deliver well-crafted translations, from English to Portuguese and from Portuguese to English, in the following fields:

    • Computer Hardware, Software, Systems, and Networks

    • IT (Information Technology)

    • Internet and e-Commerce

    • Engineering (Electronics and General)

    • Multimedia

    • Video Games

    • Marketing

    • Others (using all my experience with the English language and my research capabilities)
