Raul Guerrero: professional English translator

Professional English translations by a freelancer

I am a professional English translator, my mother tongue is Spanish and I lived in the USA for 7 years obtaining my high school graduation diploma, a Bachelor of Science (equivalent to a bachelor's degree) from Iowa State University (Ames, IA, USA), and an MBA (Master of Business Administration) from Tiffin University (Tiffin, OH, USA). As you can see in my resume (attached), I have a lot of experience working with translation companies from all over the world including USA, Europe, Asia and Latin America (over 3,700,000 words translated since 2015 exclusively for translation agencies). Through such companies, I have translated for some of the world's largest and most prestigious companies in the automotive, oil, financial, insurance and healthcare industries. I typically translate 6,000 words per day which includes three revisions to ensure excellent quality. I work hard, always deliver my work on time and always maintain an open channel of communication with my clients. I thank you in advance for your attention to this and look forward to collaborating with you soon on translation projects.
