I report on a wide range of issues for major media outlets and am a multi-skilled and passionate content writer, storyteller and editor with a particular flair for in-depth research. I am a native English speaker who is bilingual in European Portuguese and also have a wealth of experience in translating newsletters, press releases and a variety of corporate communications from Portuguese into English.
