About me:
29-year old Polish native freelancer currently living in Poland.
Translating is my only source of income and I am doing it full-time.
Although I know other foreign languages, my working language pair is English<=>Polish.
I am running my own business with registered European Tax ID number (PL 7582163659).
This allows me to issue invoices for customers from all over the world.
Translating experience:
Since 2005 I have cooperated with numerous European and world translation agencies (i.e. Atet, BeTranslated, HiSoft, Lido-Lang, LionBridge, Stratcore, Trado), as well as with individual clients, thus I have gained a reputation for responsibility and punctuality.
The main scope of my work regards translations within fields of:
* civil engineering (buildings, materials and technologies),
* mechanical engineering (machine tools, machines, processing),
* software (CAD/CAE programs, operating systems, other programs),
* military (armament).
This encompasses professional and highly technical knowledge, which is absolutely paramount in all of my translations.
CAT knowledge:
Trados, SDLX, Passolo, Wordfast, Idiom, Transit, Logoport (Translation Workspace).
All CAT programs used by me are genuine and up-to-date.
If necessary, I am able to learn new software quickly.
Office software knowledge:
MS Office, Adobe, OpenOffice.
Other foreign languages:
Russian, Spanish.
