About

I'm a Linguistic Engineer at Acolad Group, working in the AI/MT Enablement Team within Customer Excellence. My focus is on Machine Translation Quality Estimation, Automatic Post-Editing, MT evaluation and training, and developing AI-driven solutions for the localization industry.

As coordinator of the MTQE-APE project, I provide strategic oversight and team leadership, working closely with stakeholders to optimize client-specific setups and drive continuous improvement in MT workflows.

I'm also a Course Instructor at TranslaStars, teaching in the AI and Innovation for Localization master's program, where I explore Neural Machine Translation, LLM translation, RAG, Fine-tuning, and Prompt Engineering.
