Bio

I began my freelance career as an app GUI and website localiser in 2015 when I joined Gengo. Later on, I successfully completed a BA (Hons) in Linguistics at the University of York, UK, and started implementing insights from morphosyntax and parsing into the translation process.

As of 2021, I am pursuing an MSc in Language Technology at the University of Athens, Greece, specializing in machine learning, automated translations and computational manipulations on language corpora.

I have now branched out to more technical content—i.a. legal text and contracts, academic articles, and medical papers—and continue to pursue more advanced and inter-disciplinary methods when translating.

Best regards
