Translator, Writer and Journalist
I spent 2006-2011 working as an in-house translation Agency for a major international engineering firm on various oil and gas projects. I translated texts from and into different languages with the help of my Foreign Friends by their specified deadlines on topics including petroleum and petrochemicals, all units and processes in an oil refinery, procurement and logistics, contracts, and finance. Texts included technical specifications, design drawings, equipment fabrication progress reports, inspection reports, meeting minutes, financial reports, and shipping documents. Since 2011, I have been translating on a freelance basis, specializing in Technical and other sciences, oil and gas, and pharmaceuticals and clinical trials. I participate in trainings and webinars from the American Translators Association and American Chemical Society and I enjoy taking online classes in various topics.
