What I'm looking for

I seek roles leveraging my multilingual expertise and regional knowledge—translation, cultural analysis, or research positions with collaborative teams, clear impact, and opportunities to apply OSINT and sociolinguistic methods.

I am a multilingual translator and cultural analyst specializing in Russian and Romanian with active Secret Security Clearance. I combine rigorous linguistic training with lived experience across Eastern Europe and Latin America to deliver precise translations and culturally informed analysis.

As an independent language consultant I have provided Russian–English and Romanian–English translation for academic and business documents, supported ESL learners, and advised faculty on Eastern European linguistic context. My DLPT scores (Russian 3/3, Romanian 3/3) reflect professional proficiency.

My background includes immersive study and residence in Russia, Moldova, Romania, and Guatemala, and coursework in translation, interpretation, applied linguistics, and Eastern European studies. I apply ethnographic observation and OSINT-informed research methods to produce nuanced sociolinguistic insight.

I bring strengths in cross-cultural communication, public speaking, event planning, and research. I seek roles where I can leverage language mastery and regional expertise to support translation, analysis, and culturally grounded outreach for academic, government, or private-sector teams.
