Certified & Sworn Translations
When your legal or academic documents travel across borders, they require a level of precision and authority that only a dual-certified professional can provide. My services bridge the gap between the United States and international legal systems.
As a duly licensed Sworn Translator registered with the Colegio de Traductores Públicos de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires and an ATA-Certified Translator (English into Spanish), I am authorized to provide certified and sworn translations with full legal validity.
I have the authority to offer sworn translations of personal records, academic transcripts, and legal paperwork that meet the highest international standards.
Choosing an ATA-certified translator ensures you are working with a professional who has passed a rigorous examination of translation skills, including comprehension of the source text and technical writing in the target language.

Not Sure What Type of Translation You Need?
Let’s figure it out together. Institutional requirements can be confusing, and you shouldn’t have to guess. If you aren’t sure whether your document requires an ATA Certification, a Sworn Translation with CTPCBA legalization, or just a standard professional translation, simply send me an email describing your situation. I am happy to advise you on the right path for your specific destination country.
Specialized Institutional Translation
While legal and academic accuracy is the foundation of my practice, my 26+ years of experience extend deeply into specialized fields that require a nuanced understanding of cultural contexts, complex ideologies, and global issues.
I partner with non-profits, international organizations, religious institutions, and purpose-driven businesses to translate your core mission, research, and messaging into natural, high-impact Spanish.

Additional Linguistic Services
Editing & Proofreading
I offer professional editing and comprehensive proofreading services that focus on refining your text for optimal clarity, tone, and coherence, ensuring your message flows naturally and connects with readers. Whether it’s academic papers, business reports, or creative writing, this dual process not only enhances readability but also maintains the integrity of your original content, making it more impactful for your intended audience.
With an excellent eye for detail, I review your text to correct spelling, grammar, punctuation, and formatting issues, ensuring consistency in style and tone. My goal is to help you communicate your message clearly and effectively, giving your documents a polished, professional image.
I have completed a postgraduate course in Proofreading in Spanish at Fundación Litterae, ensuring your text meets the highest linguistic standards of the Spanish language.
Localization & Adaptation
I specialize in localizing Spanish content from Mexico or Spain for the Argentinian, Latin American, and U.S. Spanish markets. This process goes beyond standard translation by linguistically and culturally adapting your message to ensure it resonates natively with each specific audience. By adjusting the tone, idioms, and cultural references, I maintain the core integrity of your content while optimizing it for maximum engagement.
I have successfully localized a wide variety of high-profile content—ranging from dynamic marketing materials and branded content (including the LEGO Star Wars Encyclopedia for the Argentinian market) to sensitive social works, such as a published book on violence against women. Whether your goal is corporate impact, cultural connection, or commercial appeal, I ensure your text sounds completely natural and authentic to the intended market.
