Malena is a Sworn Translator (English ↔ Spanish) based in Argentina, with a solid background in literary, legal, and technical translation. Her passion for writing took root during university, where reflective essays sparked a lasting connection to words that she continues to cultivate both in her work and her personal life. Language is where she feels most in her element, opening the door to friendships and thoughtful conversations with people from around the world, and enriching her understanding of different cultures. As a translator, she is driven not only by the beauty of language, but also by its ability to bridge gaps between people and their goals. A lifelong learner, she pursues interests such as pottery, styling, film, and design, often exploring them through the lens of her second language.
