I've been working as a translator and interpreter for more than 25 years and I've acquired a lot of experience in various fields such as legal, engineering, information technology, power plants, oil&gas, etc. However, I'm far from resting on my laurels since I understand very well that the languages are dynamic and the world is constantly changing, so I'm in the constant pursuit of new skills and knowledge that'd help me to stay up-to-date and do my job in the most efficient and precise manner.

Efficient and accurate translator with a creative approach to work. Skilled in English-Russian, Russian-English, German-English, and German-Russian translation. Passionate about languages. Successfully translated over 200 projects, ranging from documents to websites and books. Among other skills are proofreading and editing other translators' work (with Russian as a target language) and MT texts. Currently working on entering the localization industry as a translator and editor. Among the projects that I am especially proud of are: - Translation of the book “Alexandra Trusova. The Girl Who Fights Gravity: And Changes the World of Woman's Figure Skating (Sport Stars)” by Elena Zotova that quickly became a bestseller on Amazon - Translation of the book “Breathe: Fast Lung Recovery Methods by World Elite Athlete” - Translation of Oxford International Education Group marketing materials (English into Russian) - Translation of website for D’overbroeck’s boarding school (Eng. into Russ.)

My translation career encompasses diverse areas, from movie industry (translating for Hollywood film stars (Jon Voight, Sammi Davis) to translating for roughnecks on drilling rigs in Siberia. This hands-on experience in various occupations, combined with technical background in survey & mapping, allows me to produce accurate, precise translations of even the most complicated texts. I have been working as a freelance translator since 2006, with more than 6 million words translated to date. I first started my translation career in mid 1980-ies with a few odd translation / interpretation jobs of a few months each. I then went on to work as a staff translator for the first Soviet-US JV White Nights in 1990 and continued to pursue this career with several other JVs and US companies until 2006, when I became a full-time freelance translator. Besides working as a translator during that period, I also held several other positions in procurement, logistics and administration at these companies, which subsequently proved to be a valuable source of knowledge for my work as an independent translator after 2006.

Originally from Almaty, Kazakhstan (Russian speaking), I have lived in the United States since 1996. I graduated high school in Midland, Texas, then received my first bachelors degree from Central Texas College, majoring in Computer Science. After several years, I went back to school to major in International Studies at the University of California in San Diego. Passionate for languages and cultural learning, I have lived and studied in Morelia, Mexico and Barcelona, Spain. I have worked as a freelance translator and localization expert since 2009 and have great knowledge in mobile game and app localization. Other projects throughout the years have included fiction, history and biography books, articles, and legal documents. I translate Russian to English myself and run a team of ten other translators, who work in most popular European and Asian languages. Every member of the team is a native speaker of the language he/she works in.

I'm a translator and a language nerd who learned 3 foreign languages to an advanced level within 8 years and certified them. I help companies present their products and services in a foreign language. The clients turn to me when they want to translate their existing content and recurrent marketing materials. As a hard-working person, I take pride in work well done, care about the goals they want to reach through translation, and communicate efficiently. I use CAT tools to ensure consistency, apply inclusive language to address all readers, and follow the brand’s tone of voice guidelines to reflect the personality of the company. I love creative projects where I need to address the audience directly. My goal is to convey the message in another language with the same effect. My topics: forex and trading, cryptocurrency, marketing, SEO/ASO, e-commerce, social media content, online education. I’d be happy to hear from you and discuss your projects!
