About me ISABELA CAMARGO
I am a 29-year-old Brazilian Portuguese linguist and English teacher. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture and Community Planning and I am pursuing a Master’s degree in Dynamics of the Inhabited Space
In 2019 I was an Editorial Executive Coordinator, Editor and Graphic Designer for the book “Maceió at War: social exclusion, segregation and public security in crisis”, authored by Geraldo de Majella and edited by Bagaço Design Ltda. That same year, I started teaching English and have been teaching children and adults since then.
In 2020 I started working with transcreation as an Associate Translator at Piracema Studio, where I was a LQA specialist of the Brazilian Portuguese translation of the book "Essential Emotions: your guide to process, release, and live free." 8th Edition, authored and edited by Essential emotions LLC; translated Salvador's Plan for Mitigation and Adaptation to Climate Change, a C40’s project for Salvador City Hall; subtitled and/or translated projects for six films, among other projects. I was also responsible for the co-creation and graphic design of a booklet to help parents and educators provide a more inclusive environment for left-handed children, a Piracema Studio’s project.
Moreover, I work as a freelancer for Brazilian and international agencies such as Ab Aeterno Produção Editorial and Media Monks, where I adapt several advertising campaigns, corporate materials and high-level Marketing content.
