About

✨ I help you tell your story in Spanish and Catalan as if you wrote it yourself, keeping your values and tone of voice, with the expertise in marketing and digital media that you need so that your text flows and sounds natural. I could therefore say I offer translation, proofreading and copywriting services in the fields of fitness, well-being, tourism and fashion, but that would be an understatement. What I offer is communication, a helping hand to connect cultures and the experience (and in-depth training) of a well-rounded professional in language services. I bring you security, understanding, the trust that your values will be kept while being adapted into another language and culture, considering those little nuances that only highly trained professionals get. Here are some facts about me that maybe you'd like to know: 🔹 I've been helping companies, brands and entrepreneurs reach their audience by adapting their content from English into Spanish and Catalan since 2010 🔹 I'm an eternal student and I can't stop taking new training, so while you read this I'm probably looking into a new course, it could be about copywriting, French grammar, self development or creative writing 🔹 I've been involved in more than 1500 projects 🔹 Some other topics I enjoy (both in my free time and in my working life) are: ♦️ Literature (fiction, children's literature, thriller, non-fiction) ♦️ Psychology (currently studying a degree in Psychology) ♦️ Audiovisual translation ♦️ Yoga, well-being and self-development And some of the things I thrive working in: ✔️ Translate and proofread marketing content in Catalan and Spanish for cosmetics brands, fitness related content, fashion, tranvel and tourism (marketing oriented) and self-development. ✔️ Creative translation (transcreation) for newsletters and digital content ✔️ Translate sales-oriented descriptions ✔️ Transcreate ads and marketing materials ✔️ Copywrite your content, so that you can focus on something else If you’re not sure which service you need, don’t panic, I’ve been running my business since 2010 and I’ve learnt to guide my clients and understand their needs.
