Maria Paredes Fernàndez de Ortega

I am an English and Spanish (native speaker of both languages) translator with 7 years of experience. I worked for 5 years at a courthouse where I translated official documents of all sorts of subjects, for the parties to have a better understanding of their case. I've been working as a freelance translator for 2 years, I have translated books, articles, scripts, songs, letters, technical sheets, contracts, websites, documents, and I wrote a book my self in both languages.

I know how to do the right research for the content to be translated accurately, even if there are technical words involved. 

I am a Native speaker of English and Spanish. I was born in Mexico and grew up in Boston.

I'm a Lawyer. I have experience in public affairs, federal law, and contracts. 

At the courthouse, I also transcribed video and audio files into word documents for them to be officially archived, as part of my job description. 

I have done voiceover for YouTube commercials in Canada and USA. 

I'm a writer, I wrote a book in English and Spanish (recently published), I have my own blog, where I write about political, cultural and social topics.

I'm hardworking, committed, passionate, and driven
