Bio

I have sixteen years' experience in translation, interpreting, media monitoring, website localization, travel writing, linguistic consultancy, natural language processing (NLP) and linguistic research. I have experience with databases (XML, CSV etc), regular expressions and other computational tools.

I worked for five years for Factiva.com, writing stories in English on various subjects, mostly in Finance and Business (banking, aviation, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, forestry, oil & gas, engineering, among others). Most of the sources I used were in Scandinavian languages. I have also worked with media monitoring for an Icelandic company and as an interpreter between Bulgarian and Icelandic for the Icelandic authorities. I have also contributed to open-source NLP projects (morphological analysers and rule-based machine translation involving Bulgarian, Macedonian, Swedish, Icelandic: www.apertium.org).

I have been a freelance translator for twelve years in total. At the moment I translate part-time.

Language pairs:

Source: Icelandic, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, English, Bulgarian, Bislama and occasionally Macedonian, Spanish, Faroese and Russian

Target: English, Bulgarian

I have MAs in Nordic Linguistics and Computational Linguistics. I am currently working on my PhD in Language Documentation/Oceanic Linguistics.

I have a very professional attitude, respect for deadlines and an eye for detail. I am very passionate about languages and my work.

Fields of extensive experience: -business/finance -economics -aviation/travel -IT/software/internet I also have general interest and some experience in the fields of -medicine -genetics/molecular biology -engineering -photography and arts My rates are negotiable and really depend on the assignment's parameters. My clients include: Microsoft, Swedbank, Landsbanki, BTC, Govt agencies, National Gallery of Denmark, Coop. My interests and hobbies include: independent travel, endangered languages, world music, photography, climbing mountains (I usually answer emails very promptly, but if I don't - now you know where I am). A must see: Comedy is translation
