I hold a formal university degree in international law (2007). Following my passion for languages, in 2007 I got my first job as a translator and interpreter at a shipbuilding factory in my home town of St Petersburg (Russia). One year later I got promoted to the head of translation and interpreting unit to manage 9 translators/interpreters. In 2011, willing to convert myself to simultaneous interpreter I entered St Petersburg School of Conference Interpreting and Translation (joint project of Russian MFA, UN, and European Commission). I graduated from SCIT in 2012 after a successful and insightful internship at the UN HQ in New-York (US). In the same year I started my freelance career. Gradually increasing the number of my clients I focused my expertise on translation and interpreting in the fields of business, business development, marketing, architecture, real estate, pharmaceutical industry (incl. GMP certification), education & trainings, international relations, sports (incl. Olympics, FIFA and UEFA events), and many more. I broadened my experience by working with such demanding international organizations as the UNECE, UN-Habitat, UNODC, BRICS, WMA, World Bank, IMF, Inter-Parliamentary Union, Arctic Council, BRICS, diplomatic missions (Embassy of France in Russia, Consulate General of the United Kingdom in St Petersburg, Consulate General of France in St Petersburg, Consulate General of the United States of America in St Petersburg), international (HP, Auchan, Bacardi, LVMH, Skechers, Stora Enso, GSK, J&J, Eli Lilly, Santeen, Takeda, L'Oréal, Binance) and national companies. As far as RSI is concerned, I have been trained to use Interprefy and KUDO platforms, and performed several assignments on these. My colleagues share an opinion that I am a hard-worker, able to quickly embrace new ideas and enjoy learning new things in general, I am communicative and easy to get on with, stress-resistant and focus on high quality of the job performed.
