Bio
I am a professional English to Slovak technical translator, editor and proofreader with all necessary competencies. I am a native Slovak speaker and university graduate.

I specialize in IT and engineering. My services include:

• Software and website localization
• Translation of all kinds of technical content
• Language quality assurance for translated and localized materials


Work with me

Please, have a look at some of my previous, demanding projects listed in Project History section above and let me take part in yours as well. Working with me will make both you and your customers happy, because being my client means being a satisfied client. You will find ease and absolute peace of mind while working with me because:

• My translations not only meet all professional requirements but they are always complete, thoroughly edited, grammatically and stylistically sound, free of errors and checked with a wide range of verification tools.

• Accurate terminology and appropriate style complying with industry standards and/or client guidelines are used consistently throughout the translation.

• If some part of the translation is outside my sphere of expertise, I can consult a number of trusted professionals.

• All instructions provided are strictly followed.

• No formatting issues after translation! I am also able to perform more complicated desktop publishing tasks.

• You always receive perfectly translated, formatted, edited and proofread files which you can read and open without any difficulty. I work hard to save you time and enable you to increase your productivity.

• There are no circumstances which could force me to miss a deadline. I am often able to deliver ahead of schedule, giving you more time to process the job. Of course, you will receive the highest quality then as well. I do not speak of quality merely as an advertising slogan – my work represents real quality.

• No minimum charges! Even small jobs of only a few words are no problem.

• All communication between us will be prompt, smooth and pleasant.

• I am very flexible, available for work outside of local business hours and able to create a translation team if needed. You can always reach me quickly and rely on my high responsiveness.

• Confidentiality in handling all materials is one of my highest priorities.

• As soon as I start cooperation with you, I become a trusted member of your team, keeping the needs of you and your clients in mind. I am always ready to help, and you can count on my support.

• I am a highly experienced user of SDL Trados (currently working with SDL Trados Studio 2009 and SDL Trados 2007 suite), other CAT tools (including a number of companies’ software localization tools) and the other programs listed in the relevant section above, plus various software applications used in translation and localization work.

So let your words be expressed in genuine Slovak with me – a trusted, absolutely professional, service oriented, helpful and competent partner for your Slovak language needs who offers excellent value and above-standard service.

See for yourself. I am also ready to perform test translations, and I look forward to doing business with you.
