About me

I specialise in the areas of art, media, film and TV, current affairs, culture and politics, sociology and anthropology, medical and pharmaceutical as well as a broad range of business related subjects.

My research skills are very sharp and as a result my work is highly reliable and accurate. Currently I am working towards a Ph.D. degree in Sociology (Soviet Cinema 1965-75) at the London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London.

As an translator and interpreter, I have worked on various publications, journals, newspapers, catalogs, poetry books, films, dubbing, subtitling, voice-overs, and have interpreted at major film festivals (Cannes, Rotterdam, Cairo, Los Angeles Washington, D.C.) conferences, conventions, court hearings and business meetings.

My professional language is English, and my source languages are French (completely bilingual), Arabic (native level), Armenian (native level), Italian and Turkish (source languages). I also translate into French and Armenian like a native speaker, having lived and worked in France for over 13 years and having been born of Armenian parents.

My accomplishments include:
1. Translations of narrative and documentary film scripts, publicity and press packages and various related publications for films: Last Station, Haifa, Histoires d'Arménie, le Néflier, The Way Back, Al Awda, The Colour of Pomegranates.
2. Translations of poetry: An anthology of Armenian Poetry: SOJOURN AT ARARAT, a book of poems: SARE, and more recently: Forgotten Genocides of the 20th Century.
3. Translations of stage plays: On the Couch (Sur le Divan- for French Radio), Io Donna Immigrata (IT-EN), and Nannto, Nannto (various languages).
4. Treatises on anthropology, history and people from Arabic into English.
5. Websites and related texts from Arabic, French and Italian into English.
6. Various academic articles for reviews, encyclopedia entries and newspapers - English, Arabic, French, Armenian and Italian.
7. Business manuals, catalogs, user manuals, and patent registrations. Various languages.
8. Publications and brochures for the Ministry of Culture of Armenia, for Egyptian Television and for French companies such as l'Oreal, EDF-GDF, Solvay, Galderma, CRDT, etc.
9. Legal and judicial depositions for The US Department of Justice, The Texas Work Commission and for private law firms.
10. Medical translations for drug studies and tests including disclosure forms.

My translation rates are: $120 (or 100 Eur)/ 3 pages or fraction thereof (with a minimum of $35) and I do interpreting on a half-daily or daily basis. I can invoice both in USD and in EURO on a EU bank. For most interpretation assignments rates vary according to occasion, language pair and location (ask for estimate).


My motto is: FAST, ACCURATE, RELIABLE and CONFIDENTIAL.
and... my rates are HIGHLY COMPETITIVE!
