Tiago Sarmento

​

​Welcome! Get in touch if you need an interpreter for an upcoming trip or event in Brazil and are looking for somebody who:

​

• Is native in both English and Portuguese, and fluent in Spanish, and can bridge cultural as well as linguistic gaps.
   

• Has varied experience, including a research trip with Prof. Roberto Barrios, Chair for Latin American Studies at University of New Orleans, the Consulate of Canada in São Paulo, Mídia Indígena at ATL2024, and can provide strong references.

​

• Can be hired through Instituto Dialética (institutodialetica.com), a reputable agency that works across Brazil.

​

• Is a trained Wilderness First Aider.
   

• Has professional research experience (5 years as a Physicist) so understands research needs and confidently navigates technical language.
   

• Discusses preparations and takes reading material to fully engage with your work.
   

• Understands an interpreter's role as a facilitator and not the main character.
   

• Is socially conscious, so can discuss lower rates for organizations on a tight budget and a strong social mission.
   

• Is based in São Paulo and available to travel.

It comes naturally to me to facilitate connection between people and communities, which is why I love working as an interpreter. Download my CV, find my email and phone number (WhatsApp, Signal) below, and reach out to discuss how I can be a part of your trip or event!
