Hello! I’m Marina Batistatou, a translator and language expert based in Thessaloniki, Greece, with a Bachelor in French Language and Literature and a Master's in Conference Interpreting and Translation. My goal is not to simply provide translations or copywrite materials with high accuracy, it's to create quality content that sounds authentic in the target language. I’ve volunteered at conferences, participated in a literary prize jury, and continuously expand my language skills. I’m proficient with CAT tools, Microsoft Office, and more. I thrive in collaborative, dynamic environments that require adaptability and critical thinking.
