Due to my performing arts background, to my experience with the spoken text, with the rhythm of words, and with choosing the right words for the desired effect on the audience, I feel I am the perfect candidate for most assignments, especially those dealing in reader outreach. I have also performed many dubbing assignments in Rome. I am a U.S. born Italian citizen (dual citizenship). I have accomplished many translations in the past, both scientific and humanistic (cultural) : spreading from Donizetti's "Don Pasquale", Italian to English (New York style), to 50 audio reels on the diseases of the tomato for a Rai Television agricultural documentary, to the more recent study on gender discrimination, English to Italian. I translate from Italian to English and vice versa. I have also done simultaneous interpreting at international meetings. I also speak Spanish and have an adequate knowlege of German.
