Bio
About me ...

I am an IoL (UK) certified translator (Business = Merit; Science = distinction) specialising in business and finance, legal, IT, science and social science.

I have a first class degree in Spanish and Portuguese (Proz certified), with a distinction in oral Spanish, and my IoL translation qualification is in Spanish. As a translator I work from Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French and Catalan into English. I also hold a Masters in Translation Studies and Microsoft Certified Professional qualifications in database, web and windows application development (MCSD exam numbers 70-305; 70-316; 70-229) and the NPIA Advanced Excel for Analysts (Greater Manchester Police) - 2009.

I have an excellent command of my native language - English - and have published scholarly articles and book chapters in refereed journals on Spanish and Italian language, linguistics and identity and Spanish, Mediterranean and European Integration, Economic Policy and Monetary Union. See my CV for references to the relevant journals and books.

My professional background is firstly in academia (UK higher education) where I worked for ten years as a lecturer in Spanish and Portuguese and a research specialist in the economies of the Euro-Mediterranean countries. I then re-trained and worked as a manager in large public-sector (local authority) IT projects before moving into full-time translation work. These areas of work have given me an excellent background for development of translation expertise in IT, Business and Finance and Social and Applied Sciences.

In addition to CAT tools (Trados, SDLX) I am an MS Word, Excel and Access power user, and program in VB, VB.net, C++, T-SQL, HTML and JavaScript. I am fully equipped to undertake your localization work and do any debugging/testing or formatting work requiring familiarity with these languages.
