The luck of having travelled to, and lived in, different countries (India, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Denmark, Egypt, France, Italy, Greece, Lebanon) has allowed me to master and maintain my three speaking languages (Spanish, English and French) at native levels. My previous job provided me with the necessary experience in the professional technical translation field as well as in dealing with major project management responsibilities, especially for telecommunications and automotive industry companies. Additionally, I had the chance of combining said steady job with freelance translator activities, which allowed me to successfully become professionally independent.
