Bio
Maria Teresa Cudemo
Umby is a great PM. Working with her is always a great pleasure. She is very cooperative with freelancers and does her best to make their work as smooth as possible.
Catherine Cauvin-Higgins
I have been working very closely with Umby for several years now, and I would say, in a nut shell, that she is a rigourous professional PM with a heart. Highly educated herself as a linguist, she knows there is much more to translation than just CAT tools and TMs. She senses the synergies between people and puts in place efficient and dedicated teams for her projects. Umby's personal qualities make us want to go the extra steps to ensure the projects she entrusts us go well from beginning to end. I enthusiastically recommend Umby, whose lovely personality, sense of humor, and high standards make even very challenging projects a good experience for all involved.
