Summary of Industry Experience
Agriculture
For many years, about 80% of Laura's output as a translator was in relation with agriculture. Reports, laws, directives, all kinds of technical and political documents on agriculture, animal husbandry and fisheries.
Government
Working for a supranational organization for twenty years, politics was the name of the game.
Entertainment
Tired of complaining about the poor quality of Portuguese subtitles, two years ago Laura decided to act and took a new challenge: she added subtitling to her skills. She's loving it!
Legal
When she started translated, she saw herself surrounded by juridical documents and sets of rules applicable to juridical texts. She knew nothing about it. She panicked. And then she worked. Hard. Very hard. Now, still with no juridical background, she's flattered when clients assume, from her work, she has one.
Politics
Having worked as a translator for 20 years in a supranational institution, how could Laura not feel at home at politics? Carefully choose and weight each word, make sure the translation reflects the exact tone of the debate, knowing that there's a balance that must absolutely be kept... delicious!
