ccccIII. Additional Information  
iew certific
  • Overview of my training background and career as a translator: After graduating in English Philology in the Complutense University and obtaining my MA in Specialization in EN>ES Translation in the UNED University, I soon started working fulltime as a freelance translator. In 2006, when I had got a regular portfolio of clients, I registered in Spanish Tax and Social Security Authorities (I pay VAT in Spain) and from then on I have accumulated a great deal of experience, making 80,000 average words a month. I have also attended training courses in prestigious translation private colleges, like Sampere and Calamo&Cran. In 2010 I got my BA in Translation by the Autonoma University of Madrid and got my Sworn certification EN-ES by the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs.

  • I conform to the UNE-EN 15038:2006 standard in relation to translators

  • Experience with top brands - European Union, CANON, NOKIA, DE BOER, LECTRA, GOOGLE, ONIMA, KODAK, DELL, INTEL, CALVIN KLEIN, FIRST CHOICE, PARROT, ACXMION, RENAULT, REEBOK, ORACLE, SAP, LogMeIn, Banque de France, Deutche Bank…

  • Average Monthly Output: 80,000 words

  • I only work into my mother tongue, Spanish

  • QA control: Not only do I translate, check and proofread my work, I also make a QA control with Xbench software to assure all my jobs are error-free

  • Protected against computer disasters: I have 3 PCs fully equipped with all the resources I need to work and make backups of my jobs every 30 minutes.

  • Quickness and promptness: word capacity - 4000-4500 a day (up to 5000 on rush occasions). I´ve never failed to meet a deadline.

  • I always work with CAT tools (SDL Trados, MemoQ, SDLX, Transit Satellite PE, Wordfast) to ensure coherent quality in my translations.

  • Willingness to learn and use other CAT tools and programs on demand. I´ve already worked with Open Language Tool XLIFF, SDLX "lite", Tradedit and Passolo Translator Edition.
