Specialization / Background
Eva is a freelance translator living and working in Latvia. She works in English - Latvian and Italian - Latvian language pairs. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science awarded by the University of Latvia. She has also taken various translation related courses at the University College of Ventspils (Latvia) and an intensive subtitling course (by dr Marcella de Marco) at the London Metropolitan University.

In 2000 she started working as a part-time freelance translator for a local trade company translating user manuals of different household appliances. 3 years spent working at the Ministry of Finance of Latvia (2003 - 2007) gained her the skills necessary for organizing different events and working with people from different national and cultural backgrounds. During this time she also continued doing different translations (related to Internal Auditing, European Union and anti-fraud issues).
From 2007 she is a full-time freelancer collaborating with several European translation agencies, direct clients and a local charity.

Now Eva specializes in tourism related, audiovisual and general translations. Some of the projects she has worked on include TV series like Bones, Jericho, Tequila e Bonetti, TV shows like Fear Factor and Top Gear and movies like Atonement; I, Robot; Malena; Casanova; Quantum of Solace, Rear Window and many others. Her other recent projects include translations of information regarding various hotels for a major hotel reservation website.

She is an expert user of both MS Office programs (like Word, Excel and Powerpoint) and Apple applications like Pages, Numbers and Keynotes. Her CAT of choice is Wordfast and she is familiar with Google Translator Toolkit (GTT). The subtitling projects she has done have been performed by using PMWin and Swift. She is also familiar with basic HTML codes.
