John Pinna

Translator in Brooklyn, New York

Hire me

I am a Spanish>English and Italian>English translator, editor, and proofreader living in New York. I am a lover of languages, a home brewer, an avid coffee shop reader, and a cellist.

I have been a language lover for many years. What began as a minor curiosity has grown into a passion (bordering on obsession), culminating in a vocation, career, and lifelong pursuit. Languages have been my refuge, my sanctuary away from all of life’s stressors. For years I’ve devoted myself to furthering my comprehension in Spanish and Italian and have delighted in all the nuances, quirks, irregularities, confusion, frustrations, resolutions, and infinite discoveries.

I'm an unabashed introvert and grammatically detail-oriented. I root out errant spelling and grammar like a truffle dog.

In my free time, I like to read, watch, and listen to non-English media and have lately been obsessed with European noir novels. I love borscht, pozole, shakshuka, natto, Moroccan mint tea, German beer, and a great cup of coffee.
