Bio
High quality, accurate, professional service, on-time delivery and attention to detail guaranteed.

I am working as a professional translator in a wide range of specialist fields and subject areas since 2009. My client-base includes educational institutions, national associations, translation agencies, tourist agencies and other private clients.

I studied Translation and Interpreting in three different European Universities. First, at Messina University (Italy) I was awarded a BA Degree in Theories and Techniques of Linguistic Mediation with CV in Translation and Interpreting; during those years I have been sent to the ULPGC (Spain) to deepen my knowledge at the Faculty of Translation; from Sept 2010 to Dec 2011, I specialized in English, Spanish and CAT tools at Swansea University (UK) studying the MA in Translation and Language Technology with Merit.

I translate from and into English and Spanish as I was educated and I lived in Italy, Spain and England. I also offer high-quality editing, proofreading and summarization services. I am a sworn Translator registered at the Court of Reggio Calabria. My areas of specialization include Law, Medicine (Hepatology), Social Sciences and Sociology, Psychology, Cosmetics, Marketing and E-Commerce, Construction and Civil Engineering, Websites and Games, Tourism and Art, CVs and professional presentations.

I am an Italian Certified Teacher, since Dec 2011 when I was awarded with the CEDILS Certification of Italian Teacher for Foreigners at Venice Ca'Foscari Univrsity.
Moreover, since Sept 2012, I am an English Teacher in Institutions of first education promoting the innovative "English Is Fun" method created by Adriana Cartisani.

I offer special rates to Registered Charities, NGOs and Not-for-Profit organizations who are working to bring about positive change either at a local, national or international level in order to achieve a sustainable, more equitable and peaceful world. I also apply discounted rates to organizations in the public and not-for-profit sector which strive to bring the arts, in whatever form, to a wider audience. For several years, I am a member and translator of EpaC, an Italian national association that brings support to people affected by hepatitis and help spread new researches in this field.
