Henar ChicoOwner of Chico Translations
My name is Henar Chico, and I am a native Spanish speaker from Spain. I hold a BA in English Philology from the University of Deusto, in Bilbao, as well as a Master in Professional Translation from Estudio Sampere, in Madrid. I am also a Notary Public by the State of Idaho.
I have 12 years of experience in the translation field, and I currently work as a freelance translator for several agencies on a regular basis doing translations, proofreading or editing jobs.
I have done a number of jobs for several government offices in Idaho, as well as a few private companies, such as Proclarity (now Microsoft), Chasewood Wealth Management -for whom I translated their financial website- or Stainless Steel World/Valve World, from the Netherlands. I frequently collaborate with the translation and/or revision of the EITB.com website (Basque radio and television, in Spain).
Other areas of experience include the translation of forms and reports for various Idaho School Districts, and marketing materials for several private companies.
Please feel free to check out my project history and positive feedback posted on the ProZ.com website.
As I look to the future I hope to help businesses communicate with their target audience and feel good about it, knowing that their message is coming across clearly and professionally in Spanish as well as English.
On a lighter note, I'd like to mention a very welcomed second place on the 3rd and 7th Proz.com translation contests (out of 38 and 47 entries respectively), and fourth place (out of 47) on the 6th contest. It is always a wonderful and rewarding experience taking part in these contests.
Please feel free to get in contact with me any at time.
Sincerely,
Henar Chico
