Bio

Since childhood, I have been devoted to studying languages and working with information, continuously developing my talent in this area. At the same time, the medical environment has always felt naturally familiar and interesting to me, as both my mother and sister are physicians. These two worlds come together in the translation of medical and pharmaceutical texts, which I pursue not only as a business, but also because I genuinely enjoy it. I also like keeping up with new healthcare legislation and other essential requirements.
