+15 years fulfilling linguistic needs in English
and Latin American Spanish for companies in the Fashion, Sustainability, and Marketing industries.

About Me

Welcome! I’m Mariella, a professional translator with over 15 years of experience in the translation industry, working in English and Latin American Spanish. 

Whether you are looking to expand your business in Latin America, encourage good consumption habits and smart shopping decisions, or reach the Spanish-speaking audience, you have landed on the right page!

I help your Fashion, Sustainability, or Marketing brand expand into the Latin American market by solving your linguistic needs so that you are able to spread your voice, attract new clients and connect with them, and increase conversion.

Why can I help you? Because words and communication ignite my passion and are the source of motivation for my work. Besides my formal, consistent training in English and Spanish, my curiosity leads me to broaden my knowledge and develop further skills to keep myself updated with current issues and trends in the industries I work with. I will make your mission my own and go the extra mile to help you meet your linguistic needs. That’s why I can help you!

Did you know that research shows that 85% of consumers tend to buy products and services promoted in their mother tongue? Even if they understand the language they are reading, they are less likely to stay in a site that is not written in their native language. Consumers buy what they know, understand, and trust. With the help of an experienced translator like me, your target consumers get to know, understand, and trust you.

When you need to expand your frontiers, you need to speak to your audience in their own language. Get in touch and I’ll make it happen!

How I can help you

When it comes to expanding your Fashion, Sustainability, or Marketing business, this is what I can do for you:

  • Service

    TRANSLATION

    Translation refers to the act of conveying meaning expressed in one language into another. This does not entail transferring a text on a word-by-word basis. A polished translation implies re-expressing concepts, ideas, and messages in the target language, with consistent accuracy and a natural style. This can only be done with relevant linguistic knowledge and background. A specialized translator like me is the go-to professional to help you achieve it!

  • Service

    LOCALIZATION

    Localizing your content is the perfect option when you need to adapt your product or service to be culturally and linguistically appropriate for a certain region or context. This is especially the case of applications and software programs, among others. 

    Drop me a line, and I’ll help you expand your online presence into Latin America!

  • Service

    TRANSCREATION

    This term is born from the blend of two others: “translation” and “creation”, and describes the process of adjusting a message from one language to the other while preserving the intent, style, tone, and context of the original text. The difference with translation? Well, transcreation is the quintessential service if you need to evoke the same emotions and carry the same implications in your target language. Originality and creativity are definitely brought into play here.

    Contact me and I’ll help you engage your Spanish-speaking audience!

  • Service

    COPYWRITING

    This is the go-to service if you need to write new-brand texts for advertising or marketing purposes. The resulting text is called copy or sales copy, and it aims to persuade the audience to take a particular action. It is used in brochures, catalogs, newsletters, taglines, website and social media posts, and other forms of marketing communications. 

    Want to communicate the advantages of your product or service effectively in Latin American Spanish? Get in touch to start this journey together!

  • Service

    MULTILINGUAL SEO

    When searching for your product or service on the web, people from an English-speaking culture may use a certain term, while people with a Latin American background may use a completely different word or set of words. How do you bridge this gap?

    SEO (Search Engine Optimization) involves researching for specific keywords and search terms in the target language and inserting them in your website content to improve organic positioning in search engines. As part of the optimization ―and also contributing to accessibility―, these keywords are also functional as alternative text, when they are used to craft an accurate image description.

    An effective multilingual SEO translation avoids word-by-word translation to render more favorable content search results for your audience. Contact me I’ll help you make your content easier to find!

  • Service

    EDITING & PROOFREADING

    These are two different review steps that lead to a clean text. Editing entails the comparison of both texts, the English and the Spanish versions, to spot problems in terminology, structure, and style. Proofreading is the exploration of the monolingual text focusing on surface-level errors, such as typos, spelling, punctuation, and formatting to name a few.

    Drop me a line I’ll help you polish your content in Spanish! 

  • Service

    MACHINE TRANSLATION POST-EDITING

    Artificial Intelligence is an ally that is here to stay. If you have translated your texts with a machine translation engine, make sure you first submit the content for review with a professional translator before releasing it, so as to avoid potentially undesired results for your brand.

    I help you edit your machine-translated content in Spanish so that you render a clear text that is grammatically correct, coherent, and consistent, fit for purpose. 

  • Looking for a service that is not on the list? Get in touch and I’ll craft a tailored solution for you! I work with a team of trusted colleagues who help me cater to all your linguistic needs.

     

    FIELDS OF SPECIALIZATION

    Fashion
    Fashion is a means of communication, individual expression, and social identity. Throughout history, fashion has met specific needs in different eras, even certain fabrics or styles have been a means to distinguish among social statuses. All these facts have always sparked my interest!

    Besides, growing up in a home flooded with fabrics and knits, colors and textures —since my mom used to spend hours cutting, sewing and knitting—, and being passionate about languages and communication, specializing in fashion translation services was a natural choice to me.

    For all these, I am your best option for copywriting, localizing, and translating fashion copy: catalogs, websites and applications, advertising, labels, newsletters, trends, forecasts, and so much more!
    Sustentability
    The UN World Commission on Environment and Development states that “sustainable development is a development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. Sustainability is not a passing fad. It’s here to stay, and it’s shaping the future.

    The pandemic encouraged me to nurture myself about the effects of impactful and revealing —yet avoidable— disasters like the Rana Plaza collapse. The cost-of-living crisis, the climate change, and the tons of waste produced by the fashion industry every year have shown me the importance of raising awareness about sustainability. This led me to delve deep into topics like global warming, the principle of the 3Rs, and sustainable strategies through many courses I’ve attended. I truly believe that joining forces is crucial to preserve our resources for future generations and I want to help you spread the word about it.

    If you are looking to reach the Spanish-speaking community from Latin America through your content on circularity, ecology, consuming habits, shopping decisions, and the like, leave your sustainability content translation projects in my hands… I will lead you to connect with this community!
    Marketing
    You’ve crafted the voice and tone of your message to cause a certain effect in your English-speaking audience. How can you make sure you get the same for an audience that speaks Spanish in Latin America?

    Marketing content comes in many forms and poses a big challenge that I love to embrace. A careful marketing translation process, which includes localization and transcreation, can lead your content to resonate with your target audience.

    Translating marketing materials is key to evolve how your brand communicates, make a strong connection with your Latin American audience, and increase your conversion rate. Let me help you tell your story in Spanish!

    Mariella is a great professional I am glad to work with. I know this may sound cliché, but I am not referring just to the quality of the final project, the timeliness or the research work. Mariella also puts a little bit of herself and her essence in every task. She is decisive, funny and hard-working. Nowadays working with someone who is a great professional and a kind human is a wonderful luxury.
