BIO
Raised in Upstate New York, I discovered my love of languages in secondary school, where I studied French and Latin. I went on to study at the American University in Washington, DC, and University College London before graduating with a BA in Eastern European Languages from the University of Washington in 2014.
I then moved to Poland, completed CELTA training, and worked for two years as a Business English teacher. Though I soon moved on from teaching, it was an invaluable experience from which I learned a great deal about language, culture, and communication.
EXPERIENCE
Since 2016, I have provided translation and revision services to a wide range of language service providers, law firms, and other clients from across the European Union and around the world, with a focus on legal, financial,and human resources documents, as well as academic materials in certain fields.
Over the past 8 years, I have translated well over 4,000,000 words and proofread, revised, and edited several thousand pages of documents.
Educated on both sides of the Atlantic, I am comfortable and experienced with both US and UK English. Furthermore, I am among the few Polish and Slovenian to English translators who are native English speakers.
I own and operate Gregory Chapman Language Services, a sole proprietorship registered in Poland. I issue VAT invoices in Euros, Pounds Sterling, and Polish Zloty.
For more on my professional experience, please see my CV. A list of selected academic works which I have translated is also presented below.
PRINCIPLES
I focus on providing translations that are fluent, natural, and localised in the target language without sacrificing accuracy.
I complete a thorough QA process for each job and put significant effort into proper formatting.
If I can’t provide an excellent product, I don’t accept the job.
I work quickly, offering realistic deadlines and sticking to them.
