Russian Translators in North Carolina

Academic background in business (US equivalency of BA\\'s and MA\\'s in Management Science, Moscow State Linguistic University). Published translations and articles. Editing and computer skills.

I am a professionally trained linguist in Russian interpretation and translation. I am certified by North Carolina court system as court interpreter. I have been working in the field for 17 years performing all kinds of translation and interpretation. I work in medical, legal and business field as well as the specialty areas. I translate documents and perform telephone and consecutive interpretation as well. I am also registered with National Database of Court Interpreters for the Federal Courts.

My main strengths are in the field of written translations. I have translated legal, technical, financial documents from french into spanish and vice versa. I have also translated documents from Russian to spanish.

9 years of experience in the conference translation business enabled me to be flexible with topics and deadlines, however, my core competences include: oil and gas (upstream), finance and procurement, politics and governance, telecommunications, pharmaceuticals, cycling, and some others. Having excellent organizational, time management, and mobility skills, I can work effectively under pressure and meet deadlines. I have a natural quick reaction, which makes me a strong simultaneous interpreter, with consecutive interpreting being my second favorite.

I enjoy being a linguist. I have worked as a freelance translator since 2005. I translated different kinds of documentation, advertisement brochures, articles, manuals, etc. for private persons and governmental organizations.

I was born in the Ukraine and moved to the US in 1997. I can speak, read and write in Russian and Ukrainian at native level. I graduated from a high school in Ukraine, and completed several university-level courses there, in both Russian and Ukrainian. I am a US Citizen and hold a BS in accounting from a US university. I am currently completing a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies degree at Duke University, with tentative graduation date of December 2008. I have over seven years of experience working in accounting, most recently in compliance audit, where I gained experience doing research and interacting with people of all occupations and backgrounds. I currently live in Durham, NC but will be relocating to the New York state soon. After several accounting jobs over the last seven years, I realized that accounting might not necessarily be my calling. I enjoy reading, writing, and doing research, and believe that the skills that I have acquired at my job, along with my language skills, make me a very good translator.
