Oriol Vives i Pérez
Description
Nice to meet you! My name is Oriol Vives and I am a full-time freelance translator, interpreter and writer. My educational background goes 15 years back and it includes a Chemistry training of 2 years, with an average of 8 over 10 and 2 years of working experience as a lab analyst, and a Linguistics 5-year College degree, equivalent to a PhD, in Philology by the University of Barcelona, with an average of 8.5 over 10. These facts (meaning “hard years of study” here) provide me with a unique talent to produce exceptional quality texts of all sorts. Since then I have worked in the translation, proofreading, edition, interpreting (simultaneous and consecutive) and QA of text in many subjects (due to my education I am a very versatile, polivalent talent), with millions of words translated in the legal, technical, financial, marketing and healtchare fields. I have worked for top brands and mainstream clients like Oracle, the NBA, Sony, Panasonic, Netflix, Toyota, Harley-Davidson, Siemens, Samsung, John Deere, RWC, the Mayo Clinic, the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Humane Society for Animals, Paysafe, Deltek, Keysight, and many others. I am a extremely passionate about language, I have a keen eye for detail (and typos!), I possess deep knowledge in many subjects, and I also share several highlights and beautiful words through my webpage www.madandelio.net, where I offer my first published novel, an epic journey in a medieval fantasy world, with lots of dragons, knights and magic (and also rare, precious words!), and more volumes to come. You are formally invited to join in, whether you are just curious or fully passionate about linguistics!
