About me

?ui=2&ik=bb50dc05ca&view=att&th=1327d351ddefafb8&attid=0.1&disp=inline&realattid=f_gsq74idp1&zw"www.greektranslator.gr

I am an English-Greek freelance translator (bilingual) since 2001. I was born and raised in Greece by a Greek father and a Puerto-Rican/New Yorker mother.
In 2006 I returned from Brighton, UK where I lived for 20 months. My main interest is in technical texts (manuals).

Professional experience:

- Technical: manuals for software help, home appliances, audio and video equipment, computer monitors, peripherals, tools, etc. (e.g. for Epson, Lexmark, HP, Nokia, Microsoft)

- Legal: mainly contracts, tenders and ISO and QA documents

- Medical: manuals for medical equipment (e.g. analysers, blood pressure monitors), general pharmaceutical texts. Ongoing cooperation with a doctor (GP- Gastroenterologist)

- Internet sites: the most recent are for the British Council in Greece and GlobalTestMarket (into Greek)

I can also offer DTP services in cooperation with DTP expert Sasa Chounda. Please visit her profile for more information regarding her experience and the tools she uses.

Studies:

English - Greek (Bilingual)

• National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, B.A. in English Studies (1995-1999)
• European Educational Group – Translation and Interpretation (1999-2001)


Translation aid software (CAT tools):
I own the translation environment tools SDL Trados 2007 (8.3.0) and MemoQ (I am also localizing it into Greek).

Working method:
I usually receive and deliver projects by email. I accept payment through bank transfer and Moneybookers.
