About Vanessa

Portuguese (PT-PT) linguist, translator, proofreader and content writer with solid experience in localization, editing and multilingual content. I work with companies, agencies and publishers to adapt and refine content for Portuguese audiences, ensuring accuracy, clarity, consistency and natural-sounding language.

My services include translation, proofreading and editing, website and marketing content adaptation, SEO-informed content writing, and linguistic review for digital and editorial projects. I also work with multilingual materials in English, French and Spanish, as well as adaptation between Portuguese variants whenever needed.

Over the years, I have collaborated on projects across digital marketing, publishing, tourism, academia, HR and brand communication. My background also includes project management and web content, which gives me a strong understanding of workflows, deadlines and client needs.

I am available for both one-off assignments and ongoing collaborations, from smaller editing and translation tasks to recurring content and language quality work.
