Bio
History middle school teacher since 2018, I am also enrolled in jobs as a freelance translator, mainly in scientific translation in subjects such as Humanities and Education, using my advanced knowledge in English (Brazilian Portuguese ⇋ English) and French (FRA → Brazilian Portuguese).

I have been translating eventually since 2019, but it is my goal to work professionally in the field. Giving my passion for learning new languages, I have achieved fluency in English (TOEFL 112/120), advanced level in French and intermediate level in Italian. With such knowledge, I work as a freelance translator using softwares such as SmartCat, Subtitle Edit and Sony Vegas Pro.

Seeking constant evolution and being an eager reader, I got my Bachelor's Degree in History with Highest Honours (2018, UFRGS), completed a Master in Education course (2020, UFRGS), and enrolled in two post-graduation courses: School Administration, Supervision and Counselling (2021, UNIASELVI), and Educational Counselling (2022, UNIASELVI). Academically, I conduct research about the relations between gender, sexuality and educational policies.
