Hello,
I am a translator and a designer from Kiev, Ukraine.
Over the last 7 years, I have had experience in translating different kinds of documents and articles, including IT articles for the newspapers, grants, contracts and agreements, articles of company, reports, letters, etc.
I have learnt and still learn every day. For example, while working for a Publishing House I've learnt to use Adobe Photoshop6, PageMaker6-6.5, Corel Draw9 (all versions for that time), ATM and others to set up design and actually make a layout for the All Ukraninan newspaper. Later I used this experience and even worked out design, logos and layout concepts for two newspapers.
On my next place of work I have used all the skills and not only translation and usual office duties, but also making design for all the company's promo materials together with all necessary support of its computers, as I am also experienced enough to maintain systems' work.
At the present time I would like to improve my design and language skills and learn to Web-Design (and I already do it).
