advertising and websites
- Creativity is vital to produce attractive texts that incite any potential customers to find out more about the product. That is why I strive to create translations that not only transfer meaning, but also look good and sound good.
- I have undertaken various types of marketing translations such as monthly newsletters, brochures, leaflets, magazines, promotional websites and mailers, banners, advertising copy templates, and press release notes.

IT and technical
- To create a good technical translation, you require a sound knowledge of the topic and excellent writing skills. In all my translations, linguistic quality is deemed as important as technical precision of the translated text wherever it appears: a manual, a white paper or a software application.
- I have successfully completed a wide variety of technical translations relating to IT, photography, computer networks, electronics and electrical appliances.
