English to Romanian (Asociatia Traducatorilor din Romania) English to Romanian (Romanian Ministry of Justice) English to Romanian (University of Bucharest, Section of Translation, Interpretation and Terminology)
I am a Romanian translator/proofreader/subtitler with more than 25 years of experience, working on English to Romanian pair of languages.
During this extensive experience period I have done it all: technical translations; legal translations; financial translations; subtitling; liaison interpreter; Court interpreter.
From 1999 to 2015 I have been a full-time translator/liaison interpreter of a state company (Romanian Authority for Nuclear Activities), where technical skills and a fruitful cooperation with local engineers resulted in successful projects delivery.
As a freelancer, I have been cooperating with local District Court in translating docket files for some lawsuit transfers to neighbour countries. Also, I worked for Frontier Police Department as translator-interpreter to solve some border tresspassing cases.
My legal translation-interpreting jobs are based on the Authorization issued by Romanian Ministry of Justice.
From 2009 up to now, subtitling has been the latest pleasure I have been enjoying so far, as the live, challenging language of the "men on the street" keeps me on my toes and up-to-date with the newest languade trends.
