My exciting journey as a translator kicked off in 2002 when I was surprisingly hired by a national magazine to translate a vibrant series of multimedia press releases about European tourism. Since then, I’ve gained a treasure trove of skills, and I still marvel at the moment I embarked on this  fascinating adventure!  As you can see, I collaborate directly with a variety of international brands and corporations.

In this brief overview, you'll discover a snapshot of a part of the many exciting projects and roles I've embraced.

**LUX BRANDS/RETAIL/MARKETING/FASHION:** - Wrote and translated original content for several major websites and e-stores using content management systems. - Developped and finalized style guides and glossaries for all brands I worked with, ensuring future translations would have kept their consistency. - Then, I established the right brand voice to ensure the proper cultural relevance while collaborating with designers in order to create visually appealing online content. - I served as a resource for other translators and editors on my team regarding language-related matters, helping shape how brands are represented in my native language.
