Bio

I majored in Economics and Sociology of Labour (2003) and soon after receiving my degree started out as a freelance translator specialising in business communications, texts on management, marketing, and business psychology. I have over 15 years' experience working for language service providers. I also served for a number of publishing houses translating educational and academic books by authors such as George Ritzer, Daniel Goleman, Michael Argyle, Richard Boyatzis, Jeffrey J. Fox, etc.

I am currently completing my second university degree doing Master's in Translation Studies and Linguistics (2020).

Learning languages is my greatest passion. Apart from that, I am keen on architecture and cultural studies. I have authored two books (the first is an architectural guide to Europe's finest castles, whereas the second one deals with the history of organ building in Russia). For five years I served as a translator and copywriter for a travel website producing content for their section on historical and cultural landmarks. I have been working as a translator for a famous online hotel booking website for almost seven years.

Some of the areas in which I have translation experience include:

  • corporate communications
  • marketing content
  • legal documents
  • academic papers
  • literature on management, leadership & business psychology
  • texts on architecture & travel guides
  • manuals & instructions

I am a responsible and detail-oriented person willing to master new subjects, to learn and improve my skills. My intention is to provide texts that have a natural flow and are free of errors. I pay special attention to accurate, consistent use of terminology.

I have extensive experience working with CAT-tools such as Trados, Transit, Wordfast, Smartcat, and Memsource.
