Bio

Before I started working as a full-time translator in 2006 (part-time since 2004), my job-related duties throughout the period of over 14 years of office experience had always involved a vast number of petty translations, mainly of a commercial/business character. Now I am focused entirely on translation, which allows me to experience a constant growth in the business and continuous development of my skills. My major aim is to keep customers satisfied by ensuring a top quality service for a very competitive price. No missed deadlines!

Examples of translation projects completed within the last 17 years (English into Polish):

1/ economic/legal (privacy policies and power-of-attorneys; a guide on social benefits for Polish citizens in the UK; and more…);

2/ business/HR (training materials and manuals for an international training company; 360 degree assessment materials; employee satisfaction questionnaires; and many more...);

3/ travel (Terms and Conditions for package travel contracts; descriptions of tours and excursions; complaint letters; and more...);

4/ sales & marketing (advertising; promotional campaigns; market research; client satisfaction surveys; product descriptions);

5/ education/medical (ca 70% of the content of the syllabus of a medical school – approximately 60,000 words/200 pages; brochures related to health protection and child care; materials related to COVID-19 and protective measures; and more...);

6/ education (localisation of a financial website for students that allows online payments; leaflets related to developing reading skills; content of a language online course website; the Polish version of the UI of a language-learning site; and more...);

7/ real estate (newsletters and other materials of several housing associations);

8/ literature (a collection of essays regarding cultural & social issues - ca 150 pages);

9/ other (texts for periodicals regarding cultural & social issues; press releases).

My areas of expertise are mainly business-related topics. I am focused on subjects related to Human Resources, such as employment contracts, employee guidebooks, and training materials; however, I am also eager to translate marketing-related materials, such as advertising leaflets/flyers, client satisfaction surveys, business contracts, and texts related to politics and economy. I have also translated a large number of texts (leaflets, newsletters, contracts, etc.) related to real estate and travel&tourism. Besides, I am also interested in, and comfortable with, humanities and social science (art, literature, education etc.). On the other hand, I am not, and will probably never be, a medical / technical translator.

In 2003 I completed BA studies in Business Management, specializing in HRM. In 2006 I completed BA studies in English Philology, specializing in Translation.

In 2007, I was chosen the winner of the Fourth ProZ.com Translation Contest in the English to Polish language pair; I was also the runner-up in two more contests (English to Polish and Spanish to Polish).

Apart from being my profession, translating is one of my main hobbies. In my spare time I like to translate songs (in various language combinations, mostly from/to languages other than English, i.e. Catalan, Italian, Spanish and French); you can see my translations here: https://lyricstranslate.com/en/translator/azalia
