I am a professional anthropologist with more than three years working as an English to Spanish translator. I have over 2 years of experience in the NGO sector, where my writing has served in fundraising, project management and donor relations. I have a great command of both English and Spanish. I am originally from Madrid (Spain) with an education in the United States.
I offer the following services:
• All types of translation. I translate all types of documents, including websites, articles, product descriptions, etc.
• Proofreading
• Great grammar and ortography
• Grant writing for NGOs
I am from Spain, and I have lived in several Latin American countrires (Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Argentina), so I am able to adapt your texts to both Castilian and Latin American Spanish depending on your audience.
I have great availability. You can write me and I will make sure to respond as soon as possible to start your project! I like to have a fluid communication with my clients to make sure the project is done as you will. I am an easy-going person: I am open to your comments and suggestions any time.
