I've been working as a freelance translator of literary and medical-scientific texts, as videogame localizer, as a translator of children's books, as a Project Manager and Proofreader at a translation agency based in Milan, and as a reader for an Italian publishing house. I also cooperate with my family shoe company as an interpreter and translator.
I am an extremely resolute, precise, and reliable person who has never missed a deadline. I’m eager both to put into practice my knowledge and to keep on learning new things.
