About

With nearly 27 years of experience in language and communication, Romina is a Senior Translator and Language Instructor currently based in Santa Teresita, Argentina. Her expertise spans highly specialized technical and literary translation, evidenced by a track record supporting multinational corporations like Shell, KPMG, Ernst & Young, Monsanto, Honda, and Porsche. She excels in demanding sectors including oil & gas, automotive homologation, finance, and environmental engineering, regularly handling complex engineering documents.
