Bio

A native speaker of Italian, I have lived in anglophone countries for several years and I am now based in Germany. I have two Master's degrees, one in Foreign languages and translation and one in anthropology. At this stage of my work as a translator, I am particularly interested in working on texts within the social sciences.


I have been working as a freelance translator and proofreader since 2003 for agencies, corporations and private clients in Italy, Ireland, England, Switzerland, Germany, France and Spain.


20+ years experience in the following translation fields:

  • legal texts (e.g. claims litigation, apostille documents, change of name deeds, marriage and birth certificates)
  • medical texts (e.g. clinical test reports, pharmaceutical package inserts, educational textbooks and information leaflets, psychiatric reports for courts)
  • anthropological and sociological essays and papers
  • narrative texts: short stories (sci-fi) and journalistic articles and reportages;
  • technical texts: instruction manuals, plumbing devices, health and safety instructions and procedures for staff members/contractors of several companies
  • commercial texts: slogans, ads, campaigns
  • website translation and localisation for trade shows, countries' departments of tourism, e-shops
  • subtitling of short and feature films for Milano Film Festival in 2009 and 2010
  • proofreading services for all of the above
