In my own words:

 

I am a translator, teacher and linguist by education. I have developed a natural talent in communication into a means for reaching out to and catering for different industries and work settings. 

 

Looking back, words are a continuum in my work life, having worked as a language teacher, a manager of health practices, as a content creator for textbooks, as a translator dealing with ranging topics such as environment, osteopathy and physiotherapy, cosmetics, psychology, interpreted at art festivals, in hospitality and trade conventions, and much more. As Textures now, I consider that words are not just a tool for communication. They are facilitators for communicating culture, ideas and projects.

  

My linguistic skills and subject knowledge are constantly improved and updated. As a member of ITI (Institute of Translation and Interpreting), I abide to their Code of Conduct and quality standards. Equally, we expect the same standards across Textures collaborators. These are among the achievements I am proud of:

  • offer English, Spanish, French, and Dutch in our range
  • completing a BA in Linguistics across universities in the United States, Scotland and Spain (Universidad de Granada y Almería, Mount Holyoke College, University of Edinburgh)
  • obtained a degree in Translation
  • completed a Master´s degree in Teaching
  • completed a PhD in Literature 
  • achieving a Technical Dental Health certificate
  • numerous CPD courses in translation, interpretation and other fields. The most recent are:
    • World Climate Forum 2021
    • Physical Health at Work, 2021
  • member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting, Proz and volunteer for Translators without Borders and Empower Amsterdam
