About Me.

I am a native Russian and Ukrainian speaker. My first experience with a foreign language was English, which I began studying at school in 2000. In 2004, as part of the school curriculum, I was introduced to German. A few years later, I started taking private lessons in French. Languages have always come naturally to me, and I was able to express myself confidently at varying levels of fluency across all three languages, without a noticeable accent.

 

Up on completion of my secondary school state exams in Ukraine, my parents decided to move to Ireland. In 2009 I joined St. Kilian's German School in Dublin and achieved top-of-class results in both German and French. In 2010, I spent an extended period of time in the south of Italy, where I learned Italian independently in less than a year and completed my European secondary school state exams with an overall score of 86/100. After living and working in Italy, I returned to Ireland to complete my third-level education. In my free time, I obtained a Lomonosov Moscow State University Russian Certificate (Third Level) at Trinity College Dublin, as well as a B1 Zertifikat Deutsch from the German Goethe-Institut.

In 2016, I graduated from Technological University Dublin with a First Class Honors degree in International Business and Languages (German, French, and Italian). I later completed an MSc in Digital Marketing and Analytics (2.1) at the same institution, and obtained a Professional Diploma in Project Management (2.1) from the UCD Professional Academy.

 

Professionally, I bring over 13 years of experience building and leading high-performing teams, working across PMO and project management roles within government, technology and utilities, as well as advertising and market research industries. 

​

Between June 2021 and February 2025, I acted as the interpreter in medical setting for family members in Ireland, facilitating clear communication between healthcare professionals and patients. During this time, I was exposed to a wide range of medical situations, which allowed me to develop a strong understanding of healthcare processes and environments. This experience has given me confidence in my ability to provide effective interpreting support across diverse medical circumstances, working sensitively and professionally with healthcare professionals at all levels and wide range of specializations, both in one-to-one consultations and large healthcare team meetings.

 

Through my professional career and my role running the Delegation of the Royal House of Savoy in Ireland, I have developed experience in managing complex stakeholder relationships, working with senior leadership, and presenting in formal settings including to the Grand Chancellor and the Chairman at AGMs.​ My professional knowledge and experience allow me to provide high-quality interpreting services across diverse industries and settings, working confidently with assignments of varying scale and complexity.
