Professional Profile
Greetings,
Since 2005, I have worked as a freelance translator of French, Spanish and Portuguese to English, as well as a court-approved interpreter of Portuguese / English for the Connecticut Judicial System. Beyond the Connecticut courts, I also have experience interpreting in Federal courts, depositions, immigration hearings, Worker's Compensation hearings, as well as medical consultations, and other matters.
I am a U.S. Citizen, born in Connecticut, and formerly worked as a certified English teacher for grades 7-12 in several public schools. I have a B.A. in English Literature from U-Conn. English is my native language, but I am also fluent in Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish (having family from Brazil, Mexico and Puerto Rico). I have also taught Spanish in private and public institutions, and English as a Second Language. I studied French in high school and at Purdue University including various courses at the graduate level. I studied for a MLIS (Master of Library and Information Sciences) online via the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
I use OmegaT and Virtaal, Free/Open Source CAT programs, as well as Wordfast and Fortis Revolution. I can manage your TTX, XLF, and TXML files, as well as any other industry standard file formats (all MS Office, .doc, .docx, xls, html, pdf, InDesign .idml, etc. as well as many formats for software localization) and can use and provide translation memories in standard tmx format (Trados, Wordfast, MemoQ, etc. can export/import said files, thus our tools are compatible).
You may view or download my resume at http://docs.baldwinlinguas.com/abaldwincv2015.pdf
A copy of the certificate for my MLR-ILS Spanish translation test score is available at http://docs.baldwinlinguas.com/abaldwinMLS-ILR_ESEN.pdf .
You may also learn more about me at my website, http://www.baldwinlinguas.com, or my proz.com profile, http://www.proz.com/profile/129981.
I look forward to working with you.
Cordially,
