Experience
As you can see below, my main fields of expertise in translation are: IT, tourism and sports. I also work regularly for medical clients, and on more general topics. After a six-month training at SDL in Sheffield in 2003, I finished my studies and in 2004 joined Merrill Brink Intl. in Ireland for a year. I started freelancing on September 2005, meaning I can offer you more than 3 years of experience as a translator.
