ABOUT ME

For more than thirty years, I have been a translator and a bilingual creative writer in Spanish and English, either fiction or nonfiction. I love undertaking the most challenging jobs and researching the most complex topics. I have worked with most Hispanic media as a bilingual scriptwriter, copywriter, editor, and Spanish translator and proofreader for movies, TV, websites, blogs, social media, mobile devices, printings, etc. I have substantial experience in marketing, technical writing, scientific and technology popularization, and many subjects such as legal, politics, military, healthcare, cultural subjects, etc. I’m a Spanish Linguistics and Philosophy professor, mainly for non-Spanish speaking students, and I have written several books on the subject. I have a great experience with digital, web, and social media content, mainly in WordPress and Blogger, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google+, YouTube, Instagram, etc. In addition, I’m computer savvy, with a lot of experience with the main software for word processing, translating, scriptwriting, and designing for PCs and Macs.
