Checked in | lightry (X) Russian Federation Native in Russian | Bio: I'm a freelance translator from Greek to Rusian and English to Russian with a decade of experience in the field of Art, Literature, Journalism, Politics.
|
| Checked in | | Bio: Background and qualifications
I am a freelance English-to-Dutch and Indonesian-to-Dutch translator and editor (level of education: PhD) with a passion for languages and Indonesia/Asia. An Indonesian Studies graduate, I obtained a PhD in the Humanities (Indonesian St...udies) in 2003. In 2007, I left my career as a university lecturer at Amsterdam University, Department of Media Studies (four years), to become a full-time language professional. This meant returning to my other career path, as I had been a part-time translator and language trainer (Indonesian) for ten years. Since becoming a full-time language professional I have specialized in translating and editing (academic) texts written in Dutch, Indonesian or English. Most of the texts that I translate or edit relate to Asia/Indonesia, but I am open to any language or consultancy assignment in my working languages. My areas of specialization are media, entertainment and culture; linguistics, art and literature; Indonesia, Southeast and East Asia; tourism and travel; anthropology, history and cultural studies.
Please visit my profile for more information.
I look forward to hearing from you.More Less Message: Looking forward to this event! |
