A dedicated linguist and localization expert with over two decades of experience navigating the complexities of global content strategy. My career has successfully evolved from in-house roles in localization project management for IT companies and vendors to a focused, independent translation practice established 13 years ago. This foundation is built on profound technical knowledge and specialized subject matter expertise.

Core Technical and High-Stakes Specialization

My career's foundation lies in the Information Technology (IT) field, where I have acquired vast expertise in localizing software packages of all sizes. This includes complex technical systems related to Medicine, Operating Systems, Development environments, Antivirus solutions, and general business applications like Word Processors and Spreadsheets. I am deeply adept at translating challenging technical documents, user interfaces, and software strings.

While technology remains a core focus, I strategically diversified my freelance practice to include high-stakes, sensitive, and specialized content. I routinely handle documents for major international organizations (such as the WHO, UN Women, Red Cross, and AU) and various U.S. Government departments, including the Department of State, Department of Transportation, and the Library of Congress, demonstrating a proven ability to manage complex, non-classified government and geopolitical materials.

High-Volume Market Research Localization

A critical, ongoing aspect of my current work is providing dedicated support for time-sensitive, high-volume market research initiatives. This involves the translation and cultural localization of surveys on a weekly basis across diverse and specialized sectors, including pharmaceuticals, lab testings, social media analysis, marketing, business practices and business intelligence, consistently ensuring linguistic precision and rapid turnaround for global data collection.
