Bio

Dear Colleagues,

Having graduated in 1987 (M.A. in English), I am a full-time professional specialist and
certified translator with experience exceeding 33 years, ranging from law to
science and technology, especially chemistry.


Between the years 1987 and 1997, I was a full-time translator working for a
chemical research institute, translating business documents and scientific
documentation on a number of chemicals ranging from detergents to polymers. My
employer's business was to develop and license chemical technologies. At that
time, I translated thousand of pages of documentation required for building
plants manufacturing Bisphenol A, Epoxy resins, and Epichlorohydrin to clients
in mainland China, India, and Korea.


Since 1997, I have been fully self-employed. What I regularly translate includes
Material Safety Data Sheets, Product Safety Sheets, chemical papers and patent
documentation as well Product Information for companies distributing chemical
reagents.

The list of my clients includes universities in Poland
(University of Technology,
University of Agriculture, and University
of Economics - all in Poznań),
University of Technology
in Opole, University
of Agriculture in Cracow,
and University of Life Sciences in Bydgoszcz.


As regards medical translations, I have experience in working on hospital
discharge summaries, results of tests and examinations. 

Other, related subjects of my translations, include pharmaceuticals, environment, hydrology and
microbiology.


Since 1991, when I was appointed certified translator, I have translated a
great number of contracts and agreements, civil status documents, ISO
certificates, declarations of conformity, to mention only a few types of
documents. Just to illustrate the volume of text translated, I have recently
started my 21st certified translator's register, which means I have filled
approx. 6500 entries ranging between 1 and ab. 40 pages each. 


In the years 1996-2000, I was involved, first as translator and then as entry
compiler, in team work for the PWN-Oxford University Press English-Polish
Polish-English dictionary 
https://oxford.pwn.pl/about_the_dictionary.html

In the portfolio here, 
you can find 9 samples of my POL<>ENG translations and assess my skills. There are also 5 positive reviews from my satisfied
clients in my profile.

I will be very pleased if you offer me a
chance to share my experience and help you with your translation jobs. I am
available for any question you may have, regarding potential cooperation.

If interested, do not hesitate to contact me.


Best regards

Kornelia Zwiór-Hołenko
