Life Idiomas Ltda.
Hi, I am Valeria and I would be very honored to work with/for you.

I started studying English when I was 8 years old. It was love at first class! I have never stopped looking for activities that would keep me in contact with the language, so I traveled, I listened to lots of music and I read everything I could get my hands on. After my major in Business I found a course that would help me get professional validation for the translations I did for friends and sometimes companies I worked for. I took my Translation specialization course at the best University in my state (UFMG) and after that I have worked with technical translation for large sized companies, advertisement agencies, professors and PHD students for the last 20 years. I have always wanted to start my activities in the literary field and I was encouraged by my professors and teachers to do so, but I never did it professionally. It is time to start now.

I always work very seriously and deliver my jobs within the time defined in agreement with my clients. There have always been complimentary words towards my performance and I would like to extend that into this new area. I am very commited to my work activities and I here to clarify any possible doubts you might have about me or my experience.

Author review: The quality of the material translated by Valeria was excellent. She was prompt and enthusiastic and she kept me updated on her progress and also got in touch when she had any issues that needed clarification. I hope we might have a chance to work together on another translation soon. It was a pleasure working with her.
