After getting my linguistic high school diploma, I studied at Civica Scuola Interpreti e Traduttori Altiero Spinelli (Milan) where I achieved my Bachelor\u2019s degree in Applied Linguistics first, and then my Master\u2019s degree in Conference Interpreting, defending my dissertation about interpreting in the medical field. <\/p>\n<p>I started working with English and Russian, to which I added Spanish at a later moment. Indeed, it\u2019s mainly because of Spanish that I decided to start this career.<\/p>\n<p>I have always been very keen on medicine, that\u2019s why I decided to attend a Master course in Medicine and Pharmacology for translators and interpreters and then specialised in this field. Now I translate specialised medical-pharmaceutical documents as well as dissemination texts from English to Italian, mainly. <\/p>\n<p>Besides working as an interpreter and translator, I am also a CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) Qualified English Teacher. I have been teaching English to teenagers, young adults, and adults, both online and in person. As a teacher, I work with companies, individuals, higher education institutes and universities. <\/p>\n<p>I have been an Associate member of AITI (Italian Association of Translators and Interpreters) since April 2021.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My mission:<\/strong> Being your go-to language consultant to leverage your potential and broaden your business\u2019 horizons.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My values:<\/strong> Confidentiality, punctuality, attention to details, flexibility, and innovation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My hard skills:<\/strong> a sound training combined with continuing professional development; I am a serial learner and I\u2019d attend courses of any kind out of curiosity and also because I\u2019ve realised that you can never tell what will be useful for your next assignment!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Soft skills:<\/strong> I have replaced chronic perfectionism with a special attention to details; I\u2019m a \u201cmediator\u201d by nature: you and your partners will always be the protagonists and I\u2019ll be by your side without stepping in; I\u2019m always on time and love planning, that\u2019s why I\u2019ve never missed a deadline! <\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, the passion and commitment I have always brought to my job mean the difference between simply working and going the extra mile!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c1bbab6 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"c1bbab6\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3458400 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3458400\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8765891 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8765891\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Fun facts about me<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ff2bf2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2ff2bf2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I have always loved reading and writing.
