Elena Zambrana Smith (translator)

(1)

Translation student at the University of Málaga. English, Spanish and Japanese.

Born in Spain to a Spanish father and an English mother, I was raised in a multilingual home, regularly switching from Spanish to English. My love for languages started at a very early age when I decided to master the language I thought was the most exotic: Japanese. 

After studying Industrial Engineering at University for three years, I decided to follow my passion for languages and switch to a Translation degree. I'm currently in my third year of said degree.

I've worked for Last Chance Animal Rescue, an English run charity based in Spain, as an assistant manager as well as a translator for a year and a half.

I have experience translating:

• news articles
• comics
• tourism texts
• subtitling
• literary work

I'm currently translatinf the manga series Colette wa shinu koto ni shita for the scanlation group Nozomi Scanlation.

I'm also studying Swedish, French and Spanish Sign Language (LSE).
