Bio
- I am a native speaker of Russian, and I have lived in the UK for the last 15 years.

- I graduated with an MA degree in Applied Translation studies (with Merit) from Leeds University in 2006.

- I have translated a variety of texts from English into Russian including scientific, medical, veterinary, pharmaceutical as well as engineering papers, children's books, correspondence etc.

- I have a scientific background due to my degree in Biology gained at St.Petersburg University and from six years of scientific research afterwards at the same university.

- I work fast and accurately, and always deliver my translations on time. I consistently use my scientific background and research skills. I am passionate about translation and love writing (two of my fiction books have been published in Russia). I only take a translation job if I am absolutely confident that I will complete it at the highest possible standard.

- I use English and Russian on an every day basis at home. English is my habitual language of use and I keep close links with Russia through frequent contacts and visits there.
