About

I’m a translator and content writer with 8 years of combined experience in journalistic writing, social media managing, interpretation, and translation. After working as a Spanish medical interpreter for the majority of 2020, I’m now a full-time freelancer. Previous experience includes working as an English Community Manager, where I managed two accounts and created content on blockchain technology. I have a BA in Communications and Modern Languages and I’m a certified medical interpreter (CCHI). If you are looking for a versatile translator and content writer that will take the time to understand and expand the idea of your project, then you’re in the right place. I’m currently freelancing and open to new opportunities.
