My name is Natalya Zelikova and I am a freelance translator based in Ukraine. Although I live in Ukraine, because of the language situation in my home country, I am fully bilingual in both Russian (my mother tongue) and Ukrainian - my native language. I have an MA in International Economic Relations as well as an MA in Japanese and English, which are now the source languages I translate from; I'm also working towards my German certificate and already have experience in German > Russian / Ukrainian translations. Full-time employment with a range of companies over the years has equipped me with hands-on experience in business, commerce, technology/engineering and IT industries, which proves very valuable in completing current freelance assignments. Currently I work freelance for variety of translation agencies and direct clients providing a range of linguistic services.
