I started working as a translator in 2005, during my 3rd year of college. I really grabbed the opportunity to have hands-on professional experience and decided to combine studies and work. And this is one of the best decisions in life I've made so far. Since then I worked for major oil and gas companies in Kazakhstan, at international oilfield development projects and in headquarters of international petroleum companies. In 2012 I decided that I was read to become an independent contractor and started my freelance career, which now counts many words and hours of technical translation. After two years into my freelance work I decided to follow my passion and got certified as a fitness trainer. Now I live and work in the USA, near the National Capital, in the DC area. I work as a personal fitness trainer, online wellness coach and healthy lifestyle consultant, translator, and devote lots of time and energy to empower, inspire and encourage people to recover their natural motivation to live life to the full, become fit and healthy, happy and successful, and take complete responsibility for where they are going to be tomorrow.
