S Pelaez
I have experience translating documents for several multi-national corporations including Nestle, Diageo, Merck, Sun Microsystems, IBM, Yazaki, I am an independent translator. I work on translations full time from my home, where I have a high-speed Internet connection. Unlike other translators that learned their Spanish in the Caribbean or Central America... my Spanish is from Bogota, Colombia, widely considered one of the purest forms of Spanish, not just because of the neutral accent but also for correct word usage. I have zero tolerance for typos and I take the time to make sure that sentences are perfectly understandable without ambiguity. I make sure my jobs are delivered on time and are can be universally understood by Spanish speakers anywhere. I guarantee that you will receive top-notch work.
