I translate from Spanish to English (but not vice versa). I work primarily with Catholic texts spanning from the 15th century to the present.
Current Project
Saint Rafael Arnáiz: The Collected Works, translated by Catherine Addington with an introduction by Sr. María Gonzalo, OCSO, is forthcoming with Cistercian Publications on March 15, 2022. The book presents the first comprehensive English translation of the young Trappist saint’s writings, which include letters and journals from 1921 to 1938.
