Available to hire
My name is José Carlos, I am 29 years old and I have always had a passion for foreign languages and cultures. I decided to follow my passion and pursue a career in Translation. I sought opportunities to gain personal and professional experience while continuing my training, including aviation-related roles. I later pursued a Master’s in Translation and was accepted at the Nova University of Lisbon, combining linguistic skills with practical experience.
I am motivated by cross-cultural communication and enjoy applying language proficiency in real-world contexts, from volunteering and charity work to international aviation and academic study. I aim to further develop my translation and communication capabilities and contribute to diverse, multilingual teams.
