I'm Irene, an Italian translator and facilitator with a passion for education, theatre and community integration. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Modern Languages with a focus on linguistic mediation for businesses and tourism from the University of Trento, and I have formal training in theatre and acting. I’ve spent several years helping schools adapt educational methods for students with sensory disabilities, notably deaf and hard-of-hearing children, and I enjoy creating inclusive, autonomy-building learning experiences. My work as a freelance translator, interpreter and tour guide in multilingual environments has sharpened my communication and cross-cultural skills. I’m fluent in Italian and English, with working knowledge of French and German, and I love connecting people through language, theatre and nature—whether in schools, communities or via digital media.
