My name is Leo Barreda Salamanca and I am linguistic lover.

I dedicated more than 13 years to accruing knowledge, experience and key skills in the translation, proofreading and languages industries.

Linguistics Degree – Leo Barreda Salamanca

I have a BA HONS in English Studies with Linguistics (specialising in Translation) at Brighton University, United Kingdom (1999-2002).
More information about this degree: https://www.brighton.ac.uk (English Language and Linguistics BA(Hons).

I am a multifaceted person.

My areas of expertise are the following:
Translating for the UNITED NATIONS
As a TECHNICAL TRANSLATOR from English into Spanish, with SDL Trados Studio 2011 Pro SP2 and TRADOS 7.0).
As a PROOF-READER, with Diplomas on Professional Proof-reading and Professional style proofreading. 
As a PROJECT MANAGER, leading teams of translators around the world.
As a GRAPHIC DESIGNER, working with INDESIGN, ILUSTRATOR and PHOTOSHOP.

An also, as a Content writer and Spanish teacher.

My knowledge gained in administration, customer service and project management roles has added essential valuable skills such as project preparation and coordination with internationally based teams, development of relationships with customers, and revision of large projects in several languages to my profile. An eye for detail and quality assurance means that my work is constantly meticulous, reliable, and yet always punctual.

As continuous professional development is vital to me, I have always endeavoured to enhance my skill set by earning diplomas in subtitling, professional style correction and as a teacher of Spanish as a Foreign Language.

I am really into new technologies and new ways to do things so my last and current adventure is a business about ORGANIZING WORKSHOPS FOR LANGUAGE STUDENTS, in which I try to put in practice all they learn in schools and academies. The name of this project is lenguARA lingüística cultural.
