Get professional undefined to undefined translation services

Thank you for looking at my page. I am a language professional who loves a good translation experience. I have studied 3 languages, but my passion is Russian. I have been a Russian, English, French and Spanish teacher and I have been translating for 3 years. I began translating professionally in graduate school and am now a full-time freelancer. I also edit and proofread, and work only into my native language, so I can guarantee that all my translations sound correct, natural and professional in the target language. I have translated marketing materials, websites, maps, news articles, letters, medical and pharmaceutical documents, political opinion columns, essays, poems, stories, and certificates. I have learned Russian as a foreign language from the ground up and am very proud of that monumental feat! I also know French to near-native fluency from intensive study and immersion for many years. If you are looking for a translation that has the smooth, natural sound of an experienced native speaker and the precision and accuracy of a grammar nerd, you've come to the right place. I focus on giving my clients the results they need when they need them. If I can't do the job perfectly, I will decline. If I have a question, I will ask. I would be honored to do business with you. Thank you! -Elizabeth

Originally from Almaty, Kazakhstan (Russian speaking), I have lived in the United States since 1996. I graduated high school in Midland, Texas, then received my first bachelors degree from Central Texas College, majoring in Computer Science. After several years, I went back to school to major in International Studies at the University of California in San Diego. Passionate for languages and cultural learning, I have lived and studied in Morelia, Mexico and Barcelona, Spain. I have worked as a freelance translator and localization expert since 2009 and have great knowledge in mobile game and app localization. Other projects throughout the years have included fiction, history and biography books, articles, and legal documents. I translate Russian to English myself and run a team of ten other translators, who work in most popular European and Asian languages. Every member of the team is a native speaker of the language he/she works in.

I have studied Advanced Translation as part of my course at the University of Leeds, which included journalistic, administrative, technical/scientific texts and literary texts. I graduated with a degree in Russian with Class I honours in July 2020, and since then, I have worked full time as a freelance translator and EFL teacher.

I am a freelance translator and electromechanical engineer with electrical engineering degree. Although I am native in English, I consider Russian to be my native language as well, since I am fluent in both of them. I can translate any kinds of documents, whether they are technical, legal, or medical/pharmaceutical. I also a big fan of playing online games, so I would be a good resource to localize video games or websites of any kind.

I have been working as a freelance writer since 2012 . I am very efficient and always ready to learn.

I have a M.A. degree in Russian language, literature and linguistics from the University of Arizona, and my translations are read by undergraduate university students across the United States in the pages of _The Russia Reader_ (Duke University Press, 2010). I have also completed three years of German-language study at the University of Arizona. I worked extensively for over four years on the Russian 2014 Winter Olympics Project by translating a variety of documents, ranging from press releases and brochures to technical construction diagrams of the Olympic facilities. If you watched any of the English-language broadcasts of the Opening Ceremony on February 7, 2014, then you would have heard some of my translations of the speeches of officials as read by the TV commentators. I have also contributed translations of marketing materials that advance the business goals of major companies active in both Russia and Germany. For example, last fall I translated the annual report of a major Russia-based steel producer targeted at investors. I have also recently translated the clothing catalog of a German manufacturer of music merchandise. Let me help you tackle your next translation or proofreading project. Using my cultural knowledge and academic training, I can help you avoid embarrassing mistranslations that can be hard to avoid when dealing with texts not just written in another language, but produced by a different culture. My home office computer equipment includes two laptop computers (a Mac and a PC, allowing me to run a variety of CAT software, including SDL Trados Studio 2014). I perform daily backups, and I have high-speed Internet access. With each freelance project I undertake, I guarantee high quality work delivered on or before the deadline and prompt responses to your phone calls and e-mails.
