Bio
I fell in love with English at the age of 6, when I was given a children’s picture book, “Hello Children!” that came with a 45-vinyl record, with sing-along songs to learn English words... Travelling and learning languages have been my greatest passions ever since I am a university-trained free-lance conference interpreter and translator with 30 years of experience , providing Interpreting and translation services in Italian, English and Russian , namely: Simultaneous interpreting Consecutive interpreting Remote Interpreting (Consecutive and simultaneous) Videoconference interpreting (Zoom, RSI platforms) Liaison interpreting Court interpreting Consulting, recruiting interpreters' teams English to Italian translations Russian to Italian translations Education I hold a university diploma in Translation and a master's degree in Conference Interpretation from the Advanced School of Modern Languages for Interpreters and Translators (SSLMIT) of Trieste for English and Russian. I have been working as a free-lance conference interpreter and translator since 1990 . My native tongue is Italian, and I was educated mainly in Italy, but I speak very fluent English, as I started travelling to England as a teenager. While at university, I was given the opportunity to spend one term at Heriott-Watt, Edinburgh and one in Moscow as an exchange student. Russian is my second foreign language, but I was very lucky to start studying it in a special language high-school at the age of 14. Russians often ask me whether I have Russian relatives and are surprised when I tell them that I don’t!

I have assisted US law firms at court hearings, depositions and video depositions on several occasions, in the following areas: aviation litigation class actions breach of contract, unjust enrichment fraud, corruption industrial property, intellectual property, trademarks, patents unfair trade practices, unfair competition, misleading advertising personal injury product l iability, professional liability I love interpreting at medical conferences for doctors, nurses and patients and I have notched up over 300 days of simultaneous medical interpreting, many of which in oncology. I always prepare accurately in view of each interpretation assignment and complete specific glossaries for the relevant terminology to be used. I work in accordance with a strict code of professional ethics. I am bound by professional secrecy with regard to any confidential information disclosed during assignments and I would always abide by non-competition rules in my relations with agencies and clients. I belong to AIIC, the International Association of Conference Interpreters based in Geneva and I am a voting member of ATA, the American Translators Association, certified for translation from English into Italian. My professional domicile is in Milan, but I’m always happy to travel for work in Italy and abroad.
