LAWYER–LINGUIST

Legal education shapes linguistic judgment.

It informs how complex texts are read, how terminology is assessed and how meaning is carried across languages with precision, consistency and purpose.

Legal Reasoning

Reading structure, meaning and intent before making linguistic decisions.

Terminology

Choosing terminology that reflects meaning, consistency and purpose.

Contextual Judgment

Weighing purpose, audience, register and risk before every linguistic decision.

EXPERTISE

Precision takes different forms.

Legal texts, games, editorial work and linguistic QA each call for a different balance of terminology, voice, function and audience.

ABOUT

A practice built across law, language and editorial work.

My work sits at the intersection of legal reasoning, linguistic precision and editorial judgment. A legal education informs how I approach structure, terminology and consequence; translation and localization bring those principles into contact with voice, audience and use.

Across legal, game, editorial and linguistic QA contexts, I translate between English and Brazilian Portuguese with particular attention to the decisions that allow a text to function naturally without losing what makes it precise.

Precision without erasure.
