Skill Summary
I am a professional translator with an extensive experience in various fields. During my translator's career, I have been translating/proofreading/revising enormous volume of various automotive, technical, IT & software, marketing, advertising, copywriting materials and press releases. Such translations are my everyday work, and I have acquired the particular terminology in a high level, not to mention my Latvian language skills and ability to make my translations sound like they were not translated but written by a native speaker.
By now, I have translated several TV and printed advertisements, all of them released in the national mass media.
I have an extended knowledge in Business, Marketing and Advertising areas because I hold Bachelor degree in Business/Marketing and MBA degree.
Also, my specialization includes EU related translations -- I am very familiar with the specific EU terminology, as well as the subject matters.
