Native Albanian with 18 years of proven translation experience for the English, Albanian and Italian languages. I am an official translator for the English - Albanian - English language pairs; accredited and certified by the Albanian Ministry of Justice since 2012. I have lived and completed an advanced degree in Social Sciences at an English speaking country. I have worked extensively in areas such as social responsibility, labor standards, and business ethics. Experienced in social auditing, particularly for compliance with labor standards and occupational health and safety. I provide consecutive on-site interpreting during social audits in manufacturing and non-manufacturing sites. I perform social audits myself requiring very good knowledge of the terminology in labor regulation, labor standards such as human rights, occupational health and safety, and environmental management systems.; prepared audit reports in English. I have translated in domains such as social studies (questionnaires, surveys); books (political history, tales, fiction); legal documents (academic records, legal agreements, apostilles, certificates); hospitality platforms; websites and apps etc.
Why work with me? I’ve never missed a deadline while still maintaining high quality standards at affordable rates. I strive to produce culturally sensitive translations without compromising the essence of the message author is trying to convey. I avoid word-for-word translation which makes the content sound unnatural. I aim to make my translation easy to read by the target audience.

AI Language Training
Increased Use of MT: Artificial intelligence and machine translation (MT) are no longer futuristic concepts; they are integral parts of the current translation workflow. Clients increasingly expect translators to work with or post-edit MT output. With that in mind I have integrated AI Language Training as part of the language services I provide for the English to Albanian and Albanian to English Language pairs. I will review and refine AI-generated content to ensure accuracy, clarity, adherence to cultural nuances, and creative adaptation (transcreation).
