A 100% native Russian speaker, I majored in English and German
for 5 years at a university and graduated in 1998.

I worked as a full-time in-house English/Russian translator and interpreter
over 12 years at translation agencies, 6 years at a research institute,
and many years as a freelancer.

During my tenure at translation agencies,
I translated and interpreted in many technical fields, but most of all
I enjoyed interpreting and translating for on-site projects travelling to many
underground mines and open pits, concentrating mills, metallurgical factories,
and power plants. During that period, I also had to translate a lot of
corporate and legal documentation for joint venture companies.

When working at a medical research institute, I translated scientific articles published in
peer-reviewed journals and interpreted at international scientific conferences
in USA, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Netherlands, and Belgium.

Over the years of my career, I contributed
over 3,000 translation entries at Multitran (the biggest
English-Russian online dictionary where only unique entries can be added)

Более 12 лет в штате двух перевод-бюро, 6 лет в НИИ, много лет на фрилансе.

Just one example of many successfully completed projects: interpreting Ronnie Coleman's
(8 times Mr. Olympia) visit to Russia.
