About me

Having studied at Technical University, major Marketing and Management/Banking and Finance, gives me the ability to understand complex business issues, from different aspects of manufacturing methods to software development or finance. Supplemented by Certificate of Proficiency in English and an ELT diploma, this creates a mixture of skills allowing me to be a competent ENG->PL translator.
