I’m Daniela Zambrini — technical writer, certified translator, and ASD-STE100 trainer.
With over 30 years of experience in highly regulated industries, I specialize in making technical documentation clear, compliant, and multilingual-ready.
I founded eXeL8 to support companies working in technical environments subject to strict safety standards — from aerospace and defense to maritime and engineering — where clarity is not just helpful, but essential.
I help people understand complex things — clearly, precisely, and in the language they need.
My work is standards-based, terminology-aware, and always tailored to your product, your audience, and your internal workflows.
I help documentation and language teams:

by global organizations, academic institutions, and international service providers
