Summary:

I am a young and high-motivated, detail-oriented freelance translator. I joined the Institute of Translation and Interpreting as an Associate member. I provide translation and proofreading services in the following language combinations:

- English>Ukrainian,
- English>Russian,
- French>Ukrainian,
- French>Russian,
- Arabic>Ukrainian,
- Arabic>Russian.

I worked closely with Ukrainian and Russian translation agencies for the last three years. I also received projects from the UK, Germany, Italy, and Azerbaijan. I have previous work experience in translation and proofreading in the areas of personal, legal, and customs documentation.
Possessing a deep understanding of the translation processes I ensure translated texts convey original meaning and tone. I have strong time-management skills; I always meet deadlines and I can work on several projects simultaneously. I also enjoy the challenges of my work process, such as words that don`t have equivalents in a target language. These challenges develop my knowledge and improve my translation skills plus it is my mission to provide accurate translation solutions for the client.

Additional Information:

For the past three years, my mission has been to be an intermediator between people who don`t speak the same language and to break down language barriers that block understanding of each other. I am very passionate about what I do.
In early 2022, I successfully passed a Course of Medical Translation from French to Russian, because I wanted to become a specialized translator, as from my experience as a qualified translator with a speciality is in more demand. I received the certificate for this course just before the war started in Ukraine.
