Helping you break down language barriers

When people from different countries come together, effective communication goes beyond words. It’s about conveying meaning, nuance and intent, so that everyone can participate fully and feel confident that their message is understood. With years of experience interpreting between English and Spanish, I help bridge language and cultural differences in settings where accuracy matters, including human rights, climate change, agriculture and international development.

Me comuniqué con Carla Davidson, debido a su extensa carrera y experiencia, y le solicité la traducción de mis certificados universitarios del español al inglés. Esto como parte del proceso para  buscar empleo como psicóloga en el Reino Unido y, desde el primer momento que la  contacte, rápidamente se hizo evidente su gran profesionalismo y amabilidad. Su atención al detalle y precisión son excepcionales. La forma en que se las arregló para traducir palabras que eran muy específicas de mi área temática fue impecable. Agradezco su dedicación y la pronta entrega de los documentos. Considero que he tomado la mejor decisión al contratar sus servicios para la traducción de mis documentos y recomiendo mucho su trabajo, que fue de los más altos estándares de calidad. Realmente no puedo agradecer lo suficiente a Carla por el servicio rápido y profesional que ha brindado.

Translation with the highest quality standards!

I contacted Carla Davidson, due to her extensive career and experience, and asked if she could translate my University certificates from Spanish to English.  I was keen to seek employment as a  Psychologist in the United Kingdom and from our first moment of contact, it became quickly apparent that she was an incredibly professional and kind individual.  Her attention to detail and precision are exceptional.  The way she managed to translate words that were very specific to my subject area was impeccable. I appreciate her dedication to the task and prompt delivery of the documents.  I consider that I’ve made the best decision when hiring her services for the translation of my documents and I highly recommend her work, which was of the highest quality standards. I really can’t thank Carla enough for the prompt and professional service she has provided.

Interpreting in Zaragoza, across Spain and abroad

I’m based in Zaragoza and work at events across Aragon, Navarre and the rest of Spain, particularly in Madrid and Barcelona. I’m also happy to travel abroad when a project calls for it – I’ve interpreted at events as far afield as Bali and Jordan. And if your meeting is online, I work remotely for clients all over the world. Organising a conference, a seminar or an institutional meeting? We can meet to plan the interpreting together.

Frequently asked questions

Do you only work in Zaragoza?

Not at all. I’m based in Zaragoza and regularly work in Aragon, Navarre, Madrid and Barcelona, but I travel anywhere in Spain and abroad for international events. I also interpret remotely for clients all over the world.

Which languages do you interpret?

I interpret between English and Spanish, in both directions. If your event needs more languages, I can put together a team of professional interpreters.

What’s the difference between simultaneous and consecutive interpreting?

In simultaneous interpreting, the interpreter conveys the speech in the other language in real time as the speaker talks, usually from a booth. In consecutive interpreting, the speaker pauses every few minutes and the interpreter then delivers the message in the other language.

How far in advance should I get in touch?

The sooner the better – that way I can secure the date and prepare the terminology for your event.

Organising a multilingual event?

Let me know the date, the format and the languages you need, and I’ll send you a no-obligation quote.
