About me

I am a native speaker of Russian living in Moscow. I have a PhD degree in economics from Lomonosov Moscow State University (one of the oldest Russian higher education establishments) as well as experience of work in the field as a scientist of a research institute, a lecturer of a college and the head of the reporting department of a bank. I also worked as an in-house translator and an editor for several newspapers and magazines (including "Economics and Life" and "Business-Week-Russia"). Currently I am a full-time freelance translator and editor.

I have translated 29 books mostly on economics, but also on human resources, law and psychology. I am happy to have been able to translate into Russian several famous financial textbooks and other best-sellers, including:

Atrill, Peter & McLaney, Eddie, "Accounting and Finance for Non-Specialists",
DePamphilis, Donald, "Mergers, Acquisitions, and Other Restructuring Activities",
Natenberg, Sheldon, "Options Volatility and Pricing",
Hayre, Lakhbir (editor), "Salomon Smith Barney Guide to Mortgage-Backed and Asset-backed Securities",
Van der Wielen, Lex and others, "International Cash Management" and
Fraser-Sampson, Guy, "Private Equity as an Asset Class".

I am currently topping ProZ lists of English-Russian translators specializing in 6 fields: Business/Commerce, Banking/Finance, Investment/Securities, Economics, Accounting and Law (Contracts). I am also the last 3 month, last 12 month and all-time leader in Business/Commerce.
