Freelance Interpreter and Translator
I have been interpreting and translating English-Italian and vice versa for over ten years. I have worked in a wide range of industries from chemical and engineering to finance and IT. Please see my CV below for full details.
I pride myself on a high quality service. I do not work as an intermediary, and therefore my rates are competitive. I charge an hourly rate for interpreting work, and per word for translations. Please do not hesitate to contact me for a quotation. For translation work, please include a copy of the document you require translated so I can provide an accurate quote.
