Larissa Maia Simão (translator)

(5)

Extremely passionate about books and languages

When I turned 8, I asked for a German-Portuguese dictionary as a gift. I should have known back then that languages would be more than a hobby in my life, but it took me a little longer to figure it out!

Somehow, I became an engineer, highly experienced in innovation and strategic planning, working for more than 10 years at the largest construction company in Latin America – which I'm very proud of. Speaking languages was extremely useful on this journey due to frequent meetings with companies from all over the world and international presentations.

When it became so obvious that languages undoubtedly shape my life, I decided to start my career as a translator and finally do what I love most.

I’m a Brazilian Portuguese native speaker, fluent in English, German, Spanish, French, Catalan and currently learning Russian.

I’m proficient in Trados Studio but I can also work with various CAT Tools.

If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me!
