Professional Experience

Freelance Translator, Editor and Writer, I earned my PhD in Psychology in Italy (University of Trieste) and received my postdoctoral training in the Netherlands (MPI for Psycholinguistics), working in the field of Psychology and Language, which endowed me with more than ten years of experience in scientific writing. More recently, I worked as a ghostwriter for short language instructional books for second language learners and as a translator in the literary field, as well as in marketing, media and website localization.
