Scott Halfmann
I have seven years of experience working as a translator/simultaneous interpreter in Brazil with some high-end law firms as well as Brazil\'s top public-relations/advertising firm CDN (Companhia de Notícias), based in São Paulo. Throughout this period, I maintained a high productivity in a variety of translation jobs increasing progressively in difficulty through work opportunities offered at the Language and Research Institute of New York (LRI-NY) in São Paulo, South Brazil. Outside the company, I gained experience in the simultaneous translation booth in both volunteer and paid positions, in the complex PR/media driven issues of translation, with film editing/subtitle production, and with extensive publication experience for professional presentations as well as didactic material. Through the rigorous study, preparation and translation of English news texts for classes, as well as teacher-training sessions which I administered, my proficiency in Brazilian Portuguese rapidly reached a level of practical application within the field of on-demand translation/interpretation at our other client-companies.
