Who I am

A bookworm with a love

for all things linguistic

From Massachusetts to New York, Madrid, London, and back.

I'm always on the move, and I want to help your content get moving, too, whether that's across borders or access barriers.

I’ve been freelancing since graduating with my MA in translation in 2020. In that time, I’ve translated everything from newsletters to parking pamphlets; film festival catalogs to sportswear product descriptions; and indie documentaries to films and TV shows for major streaming services.

When I’m not translating, you’ll probably find me with my nose in a book or my hands on a barbell.

about working with me

Olivia has been working with TAST since 2022, supporting us on some of our most important high-visibility and high-impact projects with her copyediting, proofreading, translation and subtitling services. She’s extremely proactive and reliable, with a positive problem-solving and critical-thinking attitude that she brings on to every project. We’re happy to have Olivia on our team and would definitely recommend working with her to anyone who needs a Spanish-to-English (US) translator and subtitler, and an exceptional editor with a keen eye for detail.

Anna Ferrari
Translation Vendor Manager

Olivia is an exemplary proofreader and editor. She works adeptly with both academic and public facing content, British and American style systems, and different tones of writing; all the while maintaining consistent style choices. She has a keen eye for spelling and grammar mistakes, for words out of place, and for citation inconsistencies. I’ve worked with her for both peer reviewed articles and scholarly work, as well as public facing presentations, and couldn’t be happier with her work. I cannot recommend her more highly, and will always turn to her first when in need of a proofreader and copy editor.

Dr. Isabel Dollar, PhD, University of St Andrews

Every time I have a project I need some extra help with, I immediately think of Olivia. Olivia is a talented Spanish to English subtitler and skilled transcriber with great attention to detail. Her professionalism shines through every interaction and project we’ve worked on together. She’s quick to respond to emails, has never missed a deadline, and is a true pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend choosing Olivia for your audiovisual translation projects!

Molly Yurick, Spanish-to-English translator, subtitler, and transcriber

We have worked closely with Olivia for two years now and I cannot stress enough what a pleasure it has been. Her work speaks for itself, she has received nothing short of excellent feedback from our customers time and time again. She is pro-active, not afraid of asking questions and has never missed a deadline. She has habit of going beyond what is expected of her. On a more personal level, she is just a lovely person, which makes communication and everyday interaction also a joy.

Karen Rodríguez Anadón, project manager

Olivia created the closed captions for two short films I directed and produced. Her work was thoughtful and exact, and she did a beautiful job reflecting the tone and spirit of the stories through her captions. She is extremely responsive and absolutely fastidious. I recommend her highly to anyone who needs captions for a video or film.

Michelle Tattenbaum, director of theater, film, and audio

Siempre es un placer contar con Olivia en mis proyectos. Buen trabajo, comunicación e interés por lo que hace. Una profesional de 10.
