Trainer

I teach translation technology for the BA in Translation (English) at Lenguas Vivas "Juan Ramón Fernández" and of Translation Technology and Terminology and Documentation and at the Master’s Degree in Translation and Interpreting of the Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA). At UBA, I am the director of the MA in Translation Technology, Localization and Audiovisual Translation and professor of Sworn Translation Legal Framework for the BA in Sworn Translation. Lastly, I am also the coordinator of Innovation in Accesibility at the Master's Degree on Accessible Communication for a Diverse Society at the Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona.

Furthermore, I offer workshops and dissertations on audiovisual translation, translation technology and the translator's marketplace, at different national and international associations, and companies.
