After 4 years living in Rio de Janeiro, I'm now happy to call Barcelona home! While my experience in Portuguese to English literary translation has culminated in a Brazilian science fiction novel published by the author on Amazon.com, in terms of Spanish to English, I translated a history of a section of Catalonia's Costa Brava by a local author. I also have an MA from the University of Cambridge in English and had one of my own poems shortlisted for the Keats-Shelley Prize in 2015.

Passionate about books, comics and theatre since I was a kid.
I was born in Italy but moved to the sunny Barcelona at the age of 7, when I had the incredible chance to learn two new languages as a native speaker. Since then I've been reading books in the three languages and after my degree I turned my passion into my job.

A well done job is the one you couldn't say it is a translation. If it is really obvious that the book was written in another language... my brain just explodes!
