About the Translator: Born in Argentina. Made in San Francisco.
I'm a Certified English/Spanish Translator and Linguist with experience in Transcreation and Localization of marketing and media material and my goal as a translator is to help you expand your business and gain new customers. I'm a native Spanish speaker from Argentina who lived and studied in California for 6 years.
A training in linguistics and translation, combined with a thorough understanding of the difference in customer perception in both cultures has given me the tools to build creative, persuasive and culturally adapted messages for the Hispanic audience. I have customers in Latin America as well as Canada and U.S.A that have seen their clientele grow because each project is proofread by a native speaker of the target country/audience.
