I am a professional English–Brazilian Portuguese translator with 12+ years of experience working in literary, technical, and audiovisual translation. My background combines language expertise with a solid foundation in film and audiovisual storytelling, which allows me to deliver translations that go beyond accuracy — they preserve voice, tone, and narrative flow. I specialize in fiction, poetry, screenplays, and subtitling, but I also work extensively with technical, legal, IT, marketing, and corporate materials, including contracts, manuals, reports, and audiovisual content. Since 2012, I have worked as a freelance translator for agencies such as All Tasks, Arabera, H3 Traduções, Zaum Langs, Opportunity Translations, Smart Traduções Técnicas, and others, as well as international companies including RWS and Wide Technical Translations. My services include translation, revision, subtitling, and transcription, always with a strong focus on clarity, consistency, and stylistic fidelity. In addition to my translation career, I am also a director, screenwriter, and producer, with projects selected for international film festivals. This experience gives me a deep understanding of dialogue, pacing, emotional nuance, and narrative structure, which is particularly valuable when translating creative and audiovisual content. Whether I am working on a novel, a screenplay, or corporate training videos, my goal is always to ensure the final text reads as if it were originally written in the target language. I am proficient in SDL Trados Studio, Subtitle Edit, Celtx, and Microsoft Office, and I am used to working with professional workflows, deadlines, and quality standards required by agencies and publishers.
