About me
Glenda Feitosa
Brazilian writer, translator, and proofreader
I help international businesses, brands, and creators communicate naturally with Brazilian audiences through clear, culturally relevant, and engaging Brazilian Portuguese content.
With professional experience in translation, proofreading, writing, and content adaptation, I go beyond grammar and literal translation to ensure every text preserves its original meaning while sounding authentic in Brazilian Portuguese.
My background spans language, communication, business, the financial sector, and international digital projects. This diverse experience allows me to approach each project with attention to context, audience, tone of voice, cultural nuances, and the purpose behind every word.
As a writer and independent author, I bring a particular sensitivity to word choice, rhythm, clarity, and readability — especially in creative content, marketing materials, and digital experiences. I also have experience with Brazilian Portuguese interpretation and voice work, helping content connect with audiences through both written and spoken language.
My goal is simple: to make your content feel as though it was originally created for Brazil.
