I am an enthusiastic and articulate English speaker with a
lot of practical experience in translation and editing, and a fluent German
speaker. I find the mastery of saying the most with least words fascinating, as
well as choosing the right words and media in order to get the message across. I have held a position as a Business Development Assistant
with a German engineering company for 4 years, during which time I have taken
over the role of an in-house translator and language consultant, proofreading
engineering reports in English, preparing various documentation and comparing
document versions in English, German and Bulgarian. My academic background is in business management, as well as
international cooperation and development work. During an internship with UN
Volunteers, I have prepared social media postings and texts for the website of
UNV, I have worked on the final version of UNV's Annual Report and the
promotion of a new Strategic Plan. I have graduated a profiled foreign language gymnasium with
English and German collecting a lot of practical experience through
participation in essay writing and translation competitions in both languages.
During this time I have developed a special interest in literature and literary
translation. My areas of expertise are varied and include business,
engineering, the arts and humanities. |
