ABOUT ME

Hi!

My name is Antoni Chaim Maroto, and I’m a certified translator who provides language services—such as translation, localization, transcreation, subtitling, and transcription. I focus on the following language pairs:

​

• English ↔ Spanish

• English ↔ Catalan

• Catalan ↔ Spanish

​

Born in a Spanish-speaking household, I’m a Catalan-American who is currently based in Salt Lake City. I’ve previously lived in cities such as Chicago, Barcelona, Cork, A Coruña, and Zaragoza.

​

A lifelong love of communication and foreign languages got me started professionally in the customer care sector. I provided in-house language services for several banks and technology companies.

​

In 2010, I graduated with a licentiate degree, which is equivalent to the combination of a bachelor’s and master’s, in Translation & Interpretation from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.

​

After college, I formed a partnership called BPM Traducciones to provide translation, interpretation, and language instruction services on a freelance basis.

​

Love brought me to the United States. That allowed me to consolidate my career as an independent translator and start my business AM Language Services.

​

In 2017, I obtained the ATA certification—one of the industry’s most respected and recognized credentials in the English into Spanish combination.

​

My primary areas of expertise are:

​

• Financial (e.g., banking and investment management)

• Healthcare (e.g., medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and psychology)

• Legal (e.g., insurance companies, law firms, schools, and state agencies)

• Marketing (e.g., audiovisual productions, websites, and written media)

​

I work with a variety of formats, including audio, desktop publishing, formatted & plain text, graphics & images, presentations, spreadsheets, video, and web pages.

​

My skills encompass, but are not limited to, Adobe Spark, Aegisub, Audacity, MemSource, Microsoft Office, PDFelement Pro, Transcribe (combined with the Infinity pedal), SDL Trados, Subtitle Workshop, XTM, and XTRF.

​

I’m passionate about bridging linguistic barriers. Contributing to the process that allows my clients to connect with Catalan and Spanish speaking audiences is a very rewarding job!
