Summary
After working as a Translator since 2005, I am confident in performing any duties associated with the role. I
especially excel at translating pharmacovigilance and technical articles, marketing and legal documents, and
other materials from Portuguese to English and vice versa, ensuring that all translations are accurate. On top
of that, I am skilled in providing linguistic assistance and support, maintaining exceptional client experience
and satisfaction. Throughout the years, I have demonstrated numerous times that I am a results-oriented
professional with exceptional organizational and time management skills and the crucial ability to perform well
both independently and in team environments while displaying a highly professional attitude and excellent
work ethic. Additionally, I am a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker with a proficiency in English, offering well-
developed writing and reading and comprehension skills. I am also a classical ballerina since 1989, graduated
from the Royal Academy of Dance (grade 7) and now I am taking lessons and learning the Cuban methodology.
