Bio

A classicist by profession, I have been working as a freelance translator for the past 13 years both in academic publishing and in film subtitling. My studies testify both to my love for and my sound knowledge of the Greek language in all its forms throughout its millennia-long history, while my extended and extensive involvement with the English language over the years has equipped me with a solid understanding of its diction and grammar, whatever the register or style.

As a translator, I specialize in the Humanities and the Arts. Although a native speaker of Greek, and thus translating mainly from English to Greek, I do occasionally translate from Greek to English: besides numerous minor projects for online publication, I recently participated in the edition of the bilingual volume Thessaloniki: A City of People (2017), being responsible for the translation of the Greek texts into English. I am currently translating Brill’s Companion to Sophocles to Greek, which is to be published by University Studio Press of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2019.

Εquipped with the skills of the discipline of Classics; endowed with a keen eye for detail and a profound love for dictionaries and research; and fascinated by the immense opportunities to creativity latent in translating, I have always enjoyed this large-scale word game of intra- and inter-linguistic transformative possibilities, while adhering to the basic principles of accuracy, meticulousness and diligence which guarantee the quality of any work.
