Biography

Hi there! My name is Marzie, I'm a translator and I would love to work on your project! Languages are my life (I speak English, Spanish and Italian), so I put a lot of effort, passion and creativity into my projects.

If I'm not working, you'll find me reading fiction or watching series about crime, suspense and mystery. I also like cooking and baking, and playing trivia and logic games. I love crosswords and brain-teasers!

Looking forward to working with you!

Interests and hobbies

Mystery/suspense books, movies, TV series
Escape rooms, puzzles, crosswords, trivia... anything that puts my mind to the test!
Sports: I do archery, swimming and kayaking, but I love tennis and football

How I'd describe my personality in two sentences

Curious like a cat. Creative like a pun.

How I'd describe my approach to my work

I read the original to capture the tone of voice of the author and try to replicate it through my writing.
I pay attention to details that make the difference (such as puns or cultural references) to adapt them according to the target audience.
I like being in touch with all the people involved in the project for questions and/or feedback.

Why should you choose me for your project

I treat each one of my projects with the same level of professionalism and detail that characterizes me.
My thorough research and linguistic skills are reflected in the quality of my work (and my peers' reviews are proof of that).
I love doing what I do best: bringing interesting, useful and thought-provoking content to a Spanish-speaking audience.
