About me

Fluent in Chinese, English and Spanish, I work both as interpreter and translator for translation agencies and for companies running their business with foreign partners. I am flexible, open-minded and used to live abroad. I enjoy working in dynamic and multicultural environments in which I can play a significant role in decision making. My expertise is based on the communication in foreign languages and on traveling, involving difficult tasks and challenges. I tend to stay in touch with the world and I have a communicative, creative and dynamic personality.

I am clever and determined: I am availabla to workabroad and adapt very fast to foreign environments and I tend to prefer challenging tasks.
