I am very pleased to present myself to you. My name is Daniella and I have been actively translating and interpreting from/into Bulgarian/English as a professional for over 17 years (since 1993). All my other jobs were based on excellent English understanding and speaking. I am confident with consecutive, simultaneous interpreting and written translating. I have a Master Degree in English Philology and a Bachelor in Public Relations.
I have taught both English and Russian and have worked as a nurse in Bulgaria, Kuwait and Greece and can understand and speak 6 languages. I'm a dual citizen of both America and Bulgaria and a chartered member of the National Language Service Corps (NLSC) and a Licensed Red Cross Instructor.
I am seeking opportunities to employ my proficiency in Bulgarian and English languages for bi-directional translation of documents or for simultaneous interpretation.
I was born and received my education, including my PhD degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences in Bulgaria. Therefore, I consider my Bulgarian language skills excellent. Also in Bulgaria I received my initial training in English for reading and writing of science publications, reading novels and entertainment journals, for oral presentations of research findings at international science conferences, and for adequate communication with other English-speaking counterparts.
Over 16 years now I have been living and working in the USA, and have been excelling my English language skills to the level where reciprocal translation between English and Bulgarian has become an effortless, precise and fluent act.
My professional career is in the field of biochemistry, biology, medicine, pharmaceuticals and toxicology, and these are my preferred areas for translation or interpretation. There are also other areas in which my terminology is also very strong and I would appreciate the opportunities to discuss them with you.
I have more than 25 years experience as a translator and interpreter at high-level meetings, seminars and conferences. I have worked in many areas: government, international affairs, finance, peacekeeping, military acquisition systems, agriculture, biotechnology, environment protection and policy, law and religious freedom, criminal justice, immigration, law enforcement, emergency management, energy security, food safety, arts management, journalism, infrastructure, housing, regional development, etc.
I would appreciate if you consider me for any jobs involving the Bulgarian language. I enjoy working as translator and interpreter and would very much like to use my language skills to the fullest extent possible.
