My name is Carol Fernandes. I am an English major currently getting my Master's degree in English Literature. My Bachelor's degree was granted by Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), one of Brazil's most renowned institutions of higher education. Fluency in both English and Portuguese is part of my language skills. I worked as an English teacher for about three years and for Demand Media Studios as a translator for nearly two years, thus I am familiar with this kind of work and have the flexibility to complete a variety of tasks in the field. My international experiences include a semester abroad, going to Wayne State University in Detroit, MI as a part of an exchange program provided by my University in Brazil. As a teacher and translator, I believe my assets are strong attention to detail, analytical skills, excellent communication, ability to work independently and flexibly to new techniques and processes.
