About

I am a Spanish citizen living between Spain (Barcelona) and Perpignan (France). I have been working in Barcelona for the same company for 15 years (Fossil Group) as a translator and I have an extensive experience in translation since I have translated from many different languages such as Spanish, French, English and Catalan. My translation experience is vast and it goes from translating texts of different categories: fashion (accurate description of fashion products such as watches, jewellery, clothes, shoes for the Amazon project) IT manuals, instruction books, contracts, training manuals, press newsletters and publicity to translating children books, religious books, comics, travel guides for Lonely Planet or even video games. I have also worked as a corrector of translations of the categories above which has allowed me to be in both sides of the projects I have participated in. I am a very dynamic and perseverant person who is interested in continuing my experience as translator in as many fields as possible since I am constantly growing my experience as a translator.
