I started my career before the Internet came of age and I acquired my technical knowledge on the field, translating side by side with engineers. product designers and developers at local manufacturing companies. I learnt about sheet metal processing, machine tools, NC devices and CAD/CAM systems. I know the technical jargon used in the real world and I know how to turn it into clear and good Italian.
