About Andra

As a professional, passionate, and detail-oriented freelance translator working with the English, Romanian, Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese languages, my expertise extends across a wide range of areas, including marketing, commerce, IT, UI/UX, medicine (pharmacology, medical devices, healthcare), law, media, gaming, technical, AI training, etc. Having 10 years of professional experience, I provide various services: translation, localization, transcreation, editing, proofreading, review, QA, machine translation post-editing (MTPE), subtitling, transcription, content moderation, and arbitration. I am also proficient in a wide range of CAT tools, such as Trados Studio, Phrase, MemoQ, Wordbee, Smartcat, and Matecat.

Romanian is my mother tongue. I also have native-level fluency (C2 level) in English and Spanish (European and LATAM), and am proficient (C1 level) in French, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese. I hold a Cambridge Certificate in Advanced English (CAE), obtained with grade A.

I also have a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in Psychology (University of Bucharest), and I am a licensed psychologist, accredited by the College of Psychologists in Romania (CPR).

Bringing my experience as a licensed psychologist to the table, I always deliver high-quality, culturally sensitive translations that meet the specific needs of my clients.
