JONATHAN DOLAN

Business and Marketing Spanish to English translation services tailored to your needs.

ABOUT ME

I’m Jonathan Dolan, a professional Spanish to English translator based in Mexico, originally from the United Kingdom. Over the past 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients across Spain and Mexico, delivering translations that are not only accurate but also culturally and linguistically nuanced.

My Background

My career has encompassed a variety of projects, including journal articles, websites, and legal documents like birth certificates, diplomas, and apostilles. I also have a passion for translating autobiographies and memoirs, helping individuals share their personal stories with English-speaking audiences.

My extensive experience as a marketing and business translator, editor, proofreader, and language instructor has given me a unique perspective on language and culture. I strive to create translations that maintain the original’s spirit while ensuring they resonate with their target audience. Having lived and worked in different Spanish-speaking regions, I am well-versed in both peninsular and Latin-American Spanish, and I understand how these variations can impact translation.

To me, translation is more than just transferring words—it’s about bridging cultures and ensuring clear communication. When you choose to work with me, I’ll take the time to fully understand your project’s needs, collaborating with you to deliver a final product that meets and exceeds your expectations.

I pride myself on being detail-oriented, reliable, and committed to delivering quality work ahead of deadlines. Let’s connect and create translations that truly speak to your audience.
