In addition to a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with specialization in Marketing and a Certificate in Translation Studies – English to Portuguese – at New York University, I’ve been continuously attending to conferences and seminars in the translation field. Over the past four years working as a freelance professional for agencies and direct clients, I also devote my time to volunteer as a translator, editor and proofreader to Global Voices, a prime network of writers and translators, and to Mongabay, a site the publishes environmental news.
