Welcome

For the past 5 years I have been working as a professional freelance translator (English<=>Greek). My fields of specialization are: Medical, Pharmaceutical, Financial, Technical Documents, Translation of Websites and Software (Localization / Globalization), Subtitling.

I have collaborated mainly with large corporations and agencies, but also with individual customers, and have worked on several subjects and document formats. I am very interested in the fields of Medicine and Computing, and I try to keep up to date with all current evolutions in these fields.

Thus, through my working experience, the background I have acquired through my studies, and with the aid of multiple linguistic tools, dictionaries and Translation Memory systems, I believe I can perform excellent in your project!
