For 7 years I worked as a Senior translator at the Institute of Volcanology & Seismology, Far East Division, Russian Academy of Sciences, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia. During that period I translated over 50 scientific papers from Russian into English that were published in the International Scientific magazines "Volcanology and Seismology", "Tectonophysics", "Seismic Research", "Journal of Geophysical Research", "Hydrogeology", etc. At that time I participated in the International field expeditions, interpreting scientific talks, conferences, seminars, presentations and slide shows for our colleagues from the US Geological Survey, JPL (NASA), Pasadena, CA, Alaskan Volcano Observatory, etc.
At present I continue my collaboration with the Institute occasionally translating articles into English in the areas of Active Volcanism, Volcanic tremor, Seismicity, Prediction of Earthquakes and Plate Tectonics.
My principle for translations into English (as it is NOT my native language) is to translate an article in such a way so that every detail is understood by the English speaking reviewer or editor.

I collaborate with the administration of the Mutnovsky Geothermal Power Plant (hitaveita - Icelandic word) starting from the initial stages of drilling steam boreholes and getting approval for reserves of geothermal energy in 1990s proceeding to present-day production of electricity and heat and relaying them to the populated areas of the Kamchatka Pen. I assisted specialists of the Icelandic National Energy Authority and Virkir Orkint LLC to perform the initial assessment of the hydrothermal resources.

One of the unforgettable experiences of my interpreter's career was a 2,5 months marathon and travel over Kamchatka, Kuriles and Commander Islands with a senior writer of the National Geographic Magazine Mr. Brian Hodgeson who published a series of articles on the Russian Far East and taught me a lot of wonderful things.

I work closely with a professional linguist/teacher, native English speaker
Dr. Stephen Leggiero who is located in Albany, New York. Together we have completed a bunch of translation projects.

I also specialize in the field of fishery business, wild salmon programs and salmon hatcheries management.

Rates for translations: negotiable and flexible, start at USD 0.07/source word reaching 14-16 US cents per source word depending on the overall volume, difficulty and urgency of the assignment.

I can receive payment via Moneybookers or by wire transfer.

Please, contact me directly by e-mail or phone and you will surely have a fair deal and superb quality translation on time.
