Bio
Born in Russia, I have been living in Canada for all of my adult life. I have grown up with the duality of both languages and cultures and have attained native proficiency in English. I have intimate knowledge of the living, natural language as it is written, spoken and understood by native speakers. My meticulous nature and intimate understanding of the source that only a native can provide insures all my translations are accurate and precise.

I have a degree in Linguistics and History, so I am not simply a language professional, but an experienced writer as well.

Specialty areas

My specialties lie in the fields of history and social sciences, literature as well as marketing, advertising/PR and tourism. With my meticulous nature, I also translate general legal texts, such as contracts.

I am available for translation, editing and proofreading. I also have knowledge and experience in the areas of subtitling and transcription.

Recent projects include

• Working with a Toronto-based translation agency on various projects, including commercial advertising and translating a large volume of commercial business texts for an established business
• Commercial advertising for a Toronto-based Academy
• Legal contracts, financial correspondences and various certificates for international clients
• Memorandums and other legal correspondence between the Russian Ministry of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights
• Several academic research papers
• Working with the University of Toronto to translate various historical documents and literature
• Public relations materials for the Universiade 2013 Summer Games in Kazan (site)
• News, Marketing materials, Landmarks and various other documents for the Olympic Games in Sochi (site)
• Media relations, news and various other documents for the upcoming Open Innovations Forum (site)
