Ris Tradiktè yo nan 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.
