Hello! My name is Dr. April Stines and I am a seasoned Russian-English & German-English translator/proofreader. I've been working in the translation industry for many years.

I received my B.A. in Russian from Arizona State University in 2014, where I graduated with the university's second-highest distinction (magna cum laude). In addition, I have extensive experience in translation, editing, and proofreading in a variety of fields. However, my main work areas include PR, marketing, IT, and other business materials.

I was lucky enough to travel the world and live in many countries, finishing school in U.A.E. and later attending the university in Greece following a job contract in the USA. My knowledge of languages from the native perspective allows me to translate at top notch quality.

I am bilingual (RUS-ENG) and have a great love for languages that has led me to learn 5 other languages. I have lived in France, the US, the UK and now Austria. I strive for perfection in everything I do. I dedicate myself to all projects I receive by thoroughly researching and creating glossaries and style guides. I pay close attention to terminology, consistency, and style. I have experience in various fields and can provide references from many clients with whom we have established a stable cooperation. I can assure you that the translation will be delivered on time and in the best possible quality. My professional reputation is my guarantee to you that I will do everything according to the highest standards.

I've worked for a few decades as a translator and storyteller for governmental and quasi-governmental agencies before moving on to being a freelance translator and copywriter. Especially well-versed in human sciences, marketing, and information technology. I am almost native in Russian and also translate from German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, and Polish.
