What I'm looking for

I seek translator/interpreter roles in legal, medical, or media sectors with collaborative teams, culturally sensitive work, and opportunities to handle high-stakes cases and literary projects.

I am a professional English–Georgian translator and interpreter with over 10 years' experience across public sector, healthcare, legal, and creative industries.

I have provided language services for the UK Home Office, NHS, Migrant Help and leading media and film companies. Most recently I translated and proofread Georgian literary works for a UK film production, including a six-book crime series.

I work in consecutive and simultaneous interpreting, face-to-face and remote, and translate literary, medical, legal and technical documents; I also handle subtitling and media translation and use CAT tools such as SDL Trados and MemoQ.

DBS-cleared and dual British–Georgian, I combine linguistic accuracy with cultural sensitivity and composure under pressure, whether supporting asylum seekers or adapting novels for English-speaking audiences. I seek opportunities to deliver precise, culturally aware translations and interpretation for high-impact projects.
