Bio
Being passionate about different languages and different cultures encouraged me to study some of them and to become a translator. Since my time at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul I translated many different projects ranging from scientific papers to websites and a computer game. I also participated in the team that translated the book "Double: A Psychoanalytic Study by Rank, Otto" from German to Portuguese (Der Doppelgänger. Eine Psychoanalytische Studie/ Wien/ Zürich: Internationaler Psychoanalytischer Verlag, 1925). 
I'm looking to further improve my experiences working as a freelance translator and proofreader on multiple online platforms.
