Why I will be an asset for you:
I am diligent and detail-oriented. I never start translating a text without having understood it completely. Such meticulous preparation also benefits my interpreting, enabling me to make snap decisions and improvise when the interpreting situation warrants it. My work is my hobby, which I greatly enjoy – you can tell from my translations and hear it in my voice when I interpret.
