Bio

I have been a proud ATA-certified Russian-to-English translator since 2009, and over the past decade I have been pleased to provide professional translation services to a growing portfolio of both private- and public-sector clients, with a body of work encompassing thousands of polished pages.

My translation expertise in the Russian-to-English language pair stems not just from my educational background (MA in Russian Language and Literature, SUNY StonyBrook - 1993, MA in International Trade, Finance, Law & Russian Area Studies, SAIS Johns Hopkins - 1997), but also from the combined 10 years I spent living and working in Moscow and St. Petersburg, which gave me unique insight into the true meaning behind many Russian-language texts that I continue to draw upon today.

As a Canadian, I am equally comfortable creating clear, concise US- and UK-English texts that read with ease. Of the wide-ranging subject matter that I handle on a regular basis, I am particularly conversant in legal- and business-related topics.
