Message

I've worked as a freelance conference interpreter since 2023, interpreting consecutively, simultaneously, and in whispered settings for courts, conferences, and notary offices. As a sworn court interpreter in Berlin, I work across Italian, German, English, and Spanish.

My background spans translation, editing, exhibition production, and cultural project management for clients including Goethe-Institut, Humboldt-University Berlin, the 10th Berlin Biennale, and Studio Rosa Barba. I bring humanities and art expertise to language services, alongside experience managing exhibitions, budgets, loans, publications, and partner communication.
