Bio
I’m a bilingual translator (English to Spanish and vice versa) from Madrid, Spain, where I currently live. I have more than eight years’ experience translating professionally.

After finishing my undergraduate degree in physics at La Laguna University I settled for a while in the UK, first in Edinburgh and then in London. That "while" turned into nine whole years!

There I worked as a science and technology technician which allowed me to acquire in-depth knowledge of the English language, both in general and in those fields. I trained as a translator at Westminster University and earned a Diploma in Translation from the Institute of Linguists, with a specialisation in science and technology.

As a freelance translator since 2009, I’ve worked for different corporate clients on documents and reports for multinational companies like GE, IBM, BP and Nissan. I’ve mainly worked in the environmental sciences, IT, energy & oil, risk assessment, patents and legal.

My interests, however, are much broader, and I am now studying philosophy at the Spanish open university, UNED. I’ve also translated in the field of social sciences and research for publishing houses like Volapük and FAL.
