About

I’m a bilingual translator and interpreter based in Madrid, Spain, with Spanish and Argentinian citizenship. I have more than a decade of experience localizing content for video games, comics, TV, and film, with expertise in English<>Spanish translation, consecutive and simultaneous interpretation, QA, and localization project management for international teams.

I collaborate with publishers and studios worldwide (including ECC, Norma Editorial, ABR Europe, RWS, Transfluent) to deliver accurate, culturally aware localization. I work with a range of tools and processes to ensure high-quality results and on-time delivery, and I’m comfortable in fast-paced environments that require clear communication and attention to detail.
