Bio
As someone with a diverse educational background and having worked in different areas, I have managed to employ my various skill and know-how to translation/editing/review processes. My bilingual education since elementary school, different areas of expertise (applied sciences, economics, marketing) and mostly my passion for anything related to technology has proven very useful, and humbly, distinguishing even. My journey through technology includes software development, hardware enthusiasm, testing bleeding edge features and a passion for movies. Somewhat of a nerd, I live in a world of popular culture references, science trivia, political discussions, film festivals, progressive music albums, movie marathons, getting the most of mobile technology, weekend trips for hiking, cycling and lots and lots of reading.

During my 14+ years as a freelance translator/subtitler, I’ve learned to put every bit of information into use. In my career as a linguist, I’ve learned to enable creative, proactive and practical solutions for different customers (often huge IT companies). In my time as a localization specialist, I’ve learned the value and importance of teamwork, quality feedback and how good communication skills can make a difference. It was my luck and my privilege that I’ve been in almost every position as a language provider (translator, editor, linguistic reviewer), which helped me see the big picture with lots of little, subtle, experience-related gimmicks.
