Technical precision or translation accuracy?
Scientific knowledge or good readability?


In other words: a subject-matter expert who does not know what makes a translation good or bad, or a translation expert who has no grasp of the subject and jargon? With me, you will not have to choose any more. Bringing these two aspects together, I craft accurate and readable translations into Italian from English and Portuguese.

My background

Science: I have obtained a Ph.D. in Mathematics and worked in academia as a researcher for almost 10 years.
Language: A native Italian speaker, I was born in Rome, but you mostly could not tell from my neutral accent. I have refined my English in Australia and Portuguese in Portugal, where I lived for 11 years, reaching near-native level.
IT: I have worked in the IT industry since 2015, providing services in the fields of computer vision, data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning to a number of companies.
Translation: I was encouraged to pursue translation by a professional translator who became my mentor on this path. I have worked as a translator and editor since 2010.
