Sarah Gray
Portuguese I studied Music and the Arts for 17 years. I Studied Brasilian Portuguese intensively for four (4) years starting at age 18, I was awarded the opportunity to live in Brasil for one year. I acted as an ambassador and concentrated on humanitarian efforts--working with children and commonwealth. I taught a local choir in Portuguese and was a teacher aid for Brasilian translation to English classes at the College F.A.E.R. in Olimpia, SP BR. I studied Italian for two years, then went to school in Florence, Italy for two years. In my second year I was called to perform impromptu Interpretation and verbal translation from Italian to English for the core curriculum (i.e. highly specialized terms for chemicals and techniques) to the other students. I can perform when needed translation from English to Portuguese, Portuguese to English, Portuguese to Italian to English either reading, writing or speaking. I have a working knowledge of HVAC units and parameters and could translate from English to Portuguese or English to Italian information cards and instructions how to install and maintain units. Can read, write, speak in Brasilian Porgutuese, Italian and English (American). I have skills in Adobe Photoshop 8 I have skills in Microsoft, Excell, Quickbooks Pro, REALVIS sticher program I have a working knowledge of Internet, MSN messenger I have knowledge of Ozone Purifying Techniques and Museum Inner Air Quality Standards I have a working knowledge of HVAC units and perameters and could help translate information cards and instructions how to install and maintain units. I have experience translating textile documents and web applications for clothing and textiles. The study of art and history offers a more indepth sociological, political, theological and geographic view than mere artistic technique. This well rounded approach is key in the understanding and interpretation, also from who what or where slangs and regionalisms originated. The better one can decifer the throught process and political/religeous discomforts of another society, the more realistic the Brasilian and Italian translations will be.
