Bio

Hi there! Just to briefly describe myself, I am nothing short of a languages fanatic. Although undergrad student in university, languages is my life. It serves as the object of my studies but also of my hobbies. Many people I know in my hometown speak French and many in my church community speak Dutch which, by the way, are languages I hope to learn in the very near future. My native language is English so I am very familiar and comfortable translating a number of languages into it. My primary secondary tongue is Modern Hebrew (for 2 years now) and at the moment, I have also begun rapidly developing my own fluency in the Spanish language. 

While on the topic of languages, as a sidenote, I am also 2 years fluent in both Classical Languages (Ancient Greek and Latin) so if you would like to connect/discuss/nerd over translated works either from or into languages as well, I would be overjoyed to do so!

In terms of translation however, I have 2.5 years of freelancing experience and I sincerely look forward to helping clients with their projects of various natures. I'm most experienced in the fields of editing and proofreading documents translated into English to achieve the desired end result of a tidy, accessible and most of all, accurate piece of work. I'm available all days of the week to work except Sunday at a consistent rate, but feel free to reach out to my email and send me a sample for quote anytime.

What is most important to me however is that, in my relationships with clients, as a Christian, fundamental core values are my standard - respect, honesty, and quality service - and on that important note, I eagerly look forward to working with many of you! 


 Josh.
