Bio
Soy totalmente bilingue y bicultural pues crecí en ambos idiomas, en distintos países y en ambas culturas. Además de traducir secciones de humor y artículos muy diversos, me gusta muchísimo escribir cuentos para niños y artículos sobre vivencias y política.
Mi misión como traductora es que la traducción se lea fluidamente, sin referencia alguna al original y sin conocimientos del otro idioma. Creo en las traducciones fidedignas y muy bien redactadas. No me interesan las traducciones mecánicas, ni traducir un número determinado de palabras por día. Me interesa, sí, la traducción que exija precisión, dominio de los idiomas y un estilo pulido de redacción.
I am fully bilingual and bicultural as I grew up in both languages, in different countries and in both cultures. In addition to translating humor and a wide variety of articles, I enjoy writing short stories for children, articles about life and living, as well as politics.
My mission as a translator is that the translation should read fluently, without any reference to the original and without any knowledge of the other language. I believe in accurate, well-drafted translations. I am not interested in mechanical translations, or in delivering a certain amount of words per day. I am interested, however, in translations that require precision, thorough knowledge of both languages, and a well-structured style.
