Bio

Certified PROs.jpg            ufxbftzaqr07um7eau5w.png



I took my University degree in Foreign Languages in 1990, studying English and German; after some years of high school teaching, I began to work as a full time freelance translator on a regular basis in 1996, at the end of a master in IT&TLC technical translation held in Milan, Italy.

My working languages are English and German.

My specialization field in the first years as a freelance translator was IT, for which I translated product documentation, instruction manuals (hardware and software), technical guides, texts for Web pages.

After some time, I gradually specialized in the dental sector and in other branches of the medical-pharmacologic field. For these sectors, which now cover almost all my professional activity, I translate medical product documentation, clinical/laboratory trials, medical device instruction manuals and software, articles for scientific papers, books, acts from international symposia, online medical surveys, MSDSs, commercial brochures, texts for websites, and more.

However, working for both direct clients and translation agencies, in the years I have also acquired notable experience in biology, chemistry, biotechnologies, optics, electronics, mechanics, engineering.

I am an accredited technical consultant for the Court of Reggio Calabria.

Besides the common Office applications, I use Trados, Wordfast, Across, MemoQ, Transit NXT, XTM Translation Manager and IBM Translation Manager in my daily activity, creating my personal glossaries and TMs or using those provided by my clients.

I always carry out my work with high precision and within the deadlines, getting documented on the subject treated in order to acquire the terminologic skills required for a high quality result.
