Profile:
I am a freelance English to Russian translator based in Minsk, Belarus. Being a native speaker of Russian with an Engineering degree in Informatics and Radio-electronics and 4 years experience as a full-time translator, I do high quality translations in my subject areas.

I specialize in IT and Marketing related translations, since I have background and great interest in these fields. Besides, I have spent 3 years in the UK (2003-2006), which gave me a chance to learn the culture of Britain.
