Bio

High quality delivered on time

Professional and friendly attitude

Experience: I started doing translations in 2008, at first just part-time as I was a full-time Translation Project Manager at one of the leading LSPs in Europe. I worked in this position for 4 years, and the 3 years before that I was a Localization Engineer at the same company. In September 2013 I started working freelance and since then translating has been my full-time occupation.

CAT tools: SDL Trados Studio up to version 2019, memoQ, and for QA I use Xbench. I also have experience with other CAT tools and TM systems such as World Server.

Rate: Depending on the individual translation task, it can vary between 35 and 45 Euro per 1000 source words. It is always negotiable and reasonable.

Examples of material I have translated from English into Bulgarian:
+ Heavy equipment - excavators, graders, etc.Mobile products and services - marketing texts
Software localizationTourism
Mechanical engineering, operations manualsHistory
+ Subtitles: TED videos on Anthropology and MedicineCompany websites

Interpreting: I was one of the two English < > Bulgarian interpreters during a 4 day seminar of MIJARC Europe, attended by 43 participants from 10 countries.

Education: I have a Bachelor of Science degree (GPA 3.85 out of 4.0) in Computer Science from Bethany College of West Virginia, USA. There I also studied quite a lot of physics, psychology, and American literature. In secondary school my major subject was Technology and programming of computerized metal-cutting machines.
