HI, I’M LAURA, LA CAVALLI

I TRANSLATE AND I INTERPRET OTHERS.

Sometimes people mistake me for an actress.

Just like an actor gives their interpretation of another person, I also slip into the skin of someone else to give voice to their words and feelings in another language.

I’m an interpreter and I connect worlds that are far apart – in terms of language and culture – that could not otherwise communicate.

I translate English and Spanish to Italian – my native tongue – and the other way around.

My job is to help you communicate with an international public, launch collaborations, and form strong, lasting relationships with your customers, suppliers, and foreign partners. You’ll succeed in taking that leap forward you’ve been dreaming of and export your project abroad so that what has worked in your own country can help improve the lives of people in other countries. You’ll see your dream come true and make your talent available to serve others, share your passion with as many people as possible and let everyone experience something unforgettable. You can share your knowledge and experience and help develop a more just society that puts people at the center.

I am also a translator and translate your writings from English or Spanish into Italian from anywhere in the world. Work with me and win over an Italian audience and promote the beauty of your land. You can have a positive impact on the world by raising awareness about a life lived with full respect for the planet and the people who live on it.

Speak and write in your own language. I’ll take care of the rest.

WHETHER I AM BEHIND THE SCENES AS A TRANSLATOR OR BY YOUR SIDE AS AN INTERPRETER, I WANT OUR FIRST TIME WORKING TOGETHER TO BE PERFECT

When you entrust me with your project, you’re choosing a freelance professional who works with enthusiasm, deep dedication, and great responsibility and professionalism. I work exclusively on projects for which I can ensure high-quality results based on my education and professional experience – as an interpreter and a translator – and my life experience which have let me deepen my linguistic, cultural, and industry knowledge.

Those who know me well appreciate that I am dynamic and creative while also very accurate and pragmatic. I am a boundless source of energy and I always give 100%. Curiosity drives me in every aspect of my life. I love to dive deep and go beyond mere surfaces. I draw on my ability to withstand high-stress situations, never stopping at the first obstacles as I smoothly find my way around them. I am happy to surround myself with loyal and honest people and partners.

I believe in the expressive wealth of each language and admire those who choose to preserve this wealth by avoiding needlessly borrowing foreign words.

I love working with those who don’t make do with mediocrity. I love working with those who respect others as people first and then professionals and who realize that time is invaluable and too short to be wasted. In a world that is always speeding up, I like to work with those who reach their goals by taking one step at a time, in the right direction, savoring the journey.

I am not the right professional for you if “you think” it is enough to just scrape by in a foreign language. Or if you think I can just wing it in my work – improvising like a dance without any preparation. Or if you think that some day artificial intelligence and a robotic voice will replace a thinking mind and an empathic heart.

Do you want to see if we’re on the same wavelength?

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

My life always by the sea, my eyes always on the horizon.

I was born and raised in Italy and still live here, just a stone’s throw from the sea.

My passion for foreign languages and cultures is rooted in my family. My mother is German, my father is Italian, and I have two siblings.

Working as an interpreter and translator makes me feel useful, satisfies my thirst for knowledge, and lets me experience the emotions of others vicariously. I am a diplomatic person and always instinctively try to mediate between people to help them find a meeting point.

I abound in interests. I love to challenge myself, test my limits, explore, and be open to the wonder of simple things.

I would rather there be enough, equal for all rather than too much, just for a few.

I practice gratitude every day, and I always find new reasons to be happy.

I do not believe in absolute success. For me, success is waking up every day happy about the life I have chosen and leaving a positive mark on the world as a person and as a professional.

TIDBITS:

I’ve lived in two Spanish cities with sea views, Vigo and Cartagena.

During a volunteer trip in 2018, I left part of my heart in Peru.

I am surrounded by singers and musicians in my family. I spent 11 years of my life devoted to dance.

I am a wine taster and an aspiring sommelier.

I love reading, sometimes even more than one book at a time.

1/2

I sold ice cream for 7 summers in a row and got to know the magical world of Italian artisanal gelato.

I recharge my batteries in nature with walks, excursions, and sports at the sea and in the mountains.

When I travel, I love to observe my surroundings and let my eyes soak up their beauty to capture it in my memory.

I wish I could visit the entire world, explore new cultures – with their traditions and history – and be immersed in their daily lives to learn and see the world with their eyes.

My newsletter

Let’s go explore new cultures together.

We take off from a cultural event and through important figures of the worlds of film, literature, food and wine, and more, we’ll delve into the cultures of other countries.
