French Translator · New Mexico
Translation in Spanish (Spain) into English, French (France) into English, and Italian into English.
Having lived in Guatemala, Spain and Mexico, and having obtained a B.Mus. with double major in Spanish (including one year of study at the University of Madrid), I speak, read and write Spanish fluently. As a native speaker of English (US), I only translate Spanish to English in order to deliver consistently excellent translations. My specialty areas are: (1) Mexican tourism and culture, (2) Spanish culture, (3) Music and art history, and (4) Immigration documents and legal contracts. As a former employee of a translation agency whose clients were South American businesses involved in the petrochemical industry, I am somewhat familiar with that terminology in both English and Spanish. Having proofread depositions involving personal injury for a number of local court reporters, I am quite familiar with English medical terminology. As a proofreader of defense contracts for a 6-month temporary assignment, I am familiar with the English terminology of the defense industry. My minor in Psychology plus my studies of French along with my Spanish major have enabled me to translate French educational documentation into English regarding a client who studied at a private institute in France. Finally, my personal passion for medieval history and culture has led me to translate articles on stained glass, sacred architecture, and medieval religious history from Spanish into English, French into English, and Italian into English.
