About me
I am a sworn English-to-Spanish translator officially appointed by Spain's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation (No. 2846). I collaborate with law firms, immigration and global-mobility consultancies and private clients, combining quality with fast turnaround.
A translator with three decades of experience, in recent years I have focused on translating documentation for Spanish visas and residence applications, as well as academic transcripts and qualifications. I deliver every translation duly sealed and signed, ready to be filed with the relevant authority. I hold specialised training —an advanced course in the translation of visa and immigration documents (2024) and a Diploma in Legal Translation (English-Spanish) from the University of Alicante— and I am a member of Asetrad, the Spanish Association of Translators, Copy-editors and Interpreters.
