Still curious?

Here’s the long version:

I was born and raised in a bilingual environment – bouncing from English to Portuguese and back again – so I’ve been communicating between different languages all my life. It’s this rare mix of extensive experience and passion for communication that make me so well-equipped to convey your message to a new audience.

My fascination with my own languages and others lead me to major in French Language and Literature at Providence College, Rhode Island, along with a minor in Italian Studies. This diverse course gave me wide-ranging knowledge of my new languages, from microeconomics to European history, international relations to astronomy, sociology to the philosophy of art.

After a stint at the French American School of Rhode Island and 6 months living and working in Portugal, I decided to use my knowledge and skills to help French and Portuguese companies to broaden their horizons and establish themselves in English-speaking markets. I have since added Italian to my working languages, combining professional results with a personal approach and guaranteed responsiveness.
