About

With a solid foundation in Mechanical Engineering from RWTH Aachen University, I've carved out a niche as a Freelance Translator, leveraging my trilingual upbringing across Italy, France, and Germany. My core competencies extend to utilizing CAT Tools like Trados Studio 2024, managing complex machinery projects, and applying my engineering knowledge to technical translations. Over the years, my work has been shaped by more than two decades of experience in technical sales and project management, which has honed my skills in project leadership. This experience, alongside my academic background, allows me to bring a diverse perspective to our team, effectively bridging cultural and linguistic gaps within the European market. My approach to work is collaborative, always aiming to contribute to the collective success of the organization.
