Bio
I live in Italy and have been a freelance translator (Italian-English and English-Italian) for 27 years. I have experience translating technical manuals for mechanical and electronic equipment, university brochures, scientific books and textbooks, scientific publications, chemical procedures, pharmaceutical information, cosmetic brochures, drug package information leaflets, informed consent forms, medical and academic papers for presentation or publication and general commercial translations. The work has also included editing and proofreading documents and manuals already written in English or Italian by technicians who are not fluent in these languages, editing and updating general information web pages, and preparation and typesetting of engineering and professional reports.

I have a B.A. in Trilingual Social Work from Syracuse University, Syracuse, N.Y. (graduated Magna Cum Laude and elected to Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society).
