Bio

I was born in the Basque Country, surrounded by a Basque-Spanish bilingual environment. I have always been passionate about languages, cultures, travelling and technology, and, somehow, my passion led me to pursue a professional translator career.

I graduated in Translation and Interpreting at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, where not only I have specialized in Translation from French and Russian into Spanish, I have also lived and grown in a Catalan-speaking atmosphere. As my Degree Project, I translated Vladimir Nabokov's Russian short story "Music" into Spanish, obtaining the highest grade.

During that time, I did an internship at an apartment complex in Barcelona, where I translated my first touristic brochures, IT manuals and the enterprise website. I also participated in various university translation contests and received the award for best Basque>Spanish and Russian>Spanish translations.

Once I finished my Bachelor's, I studied a Master's Degree in Russian Language, Culture and Literature at the Novosibirsk State University, where I graduated with honors.

During the pandemic lockdown, I decided to keep academically developing and I took online specialization courses in Basque Translation and Proofreading, and in Software and Mobile Application Localization; these courses opened a new world of possibilities for me.

I have worked as a professional freelance translator ever since, offering quality translation services in the following languages: EN/FR/RU/ES/EU>ES/EU.

I have worked on projects related to, among others, general translation, technical translation, software and website localization, audiovisual translation, subtitling, literary translation, educational and financial texts. One of the perks of my profession is that I never stop learning.
