About me
My name is Marta Gil Rojo. I am a Spanish, German and English translator and interpreter. I was born in Madrid (Spain) but I live in Düsseldorf (Germany) since 2012.
I studied Nursing and specialized in Intensive Care, a field in which I have been working since 2011.
My passion for languages, together with my professional experience in the healthcare sector in both Spain and Germany, led me to study a Bachelor in Translation, Interpreting and Applied Languages.
Thanks to my background as a nurse, my main area of specialization is medical and healthcare translation. I am also trained in audiovisual translation and localization.
Below you can find an overview of my professional experience and education.
I would be happy to help you!
