About me

I started my professional career in 1978 as a military pilot in the Czechoslovak Army.

Since 1994 till 2004 I worked for Pepsi Cola Czech and Slovak Republics on various managerial positions with responsibilities for warehousing, distribution, logistics, sales, forecasting, procurement and market equipment.

In 2004 I retired from "regular occupation" and moved from Prague, Czech Republic (I have so called "Pilot’s pension") to the mountain village Polomka in Slovakia.

Since then I work as a Freelance Interpreter English - Slovak - Czech.
I have plenty of experience with all "supply chain" translations, like manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, procurement and sale procedures and contracts.

I am available 7 days a week, 08:00 - 20:00 CET, 23:00 - 11:00 PST

I work mainly for Slovak translation agencies.
