The list contains titles where my name appears in the translator credits or where I was not asked to keep my authorship confidential. My complete project list is significantly longer, which can be seen in the figures below.
Subtitling Experience in Numbers
Cumulative professional workload (credited and non-credited):
• Subtitling: 9,026 minutes
• QC (Quality Control): 11,357 minutes
These figures refer to audiovisual translations only and do not include the millions of words translated in written texts.
📄WRITTEN TRANSLATION SAMPLES 📄
Here are a few short, self-created samples prepared to showcase my translation, localization, and DTP skills.
They reflect real-world marketing scenarios, with a strong focus on accuracy, natural style, and technical precision.
Each sample follows a professional end-to-end workflow:
Source PDF → CAT → translation → self-revision and QA pass → DOCX → visual adjustments in Word → final PDF.
Marketing Presentation
Key highlights demonstrated in this sample:
- Natural, professional tone aligned with the performance-oriented and stakeholder-focused content.
- Flawless punctuation and grammar.
- Localization for Polish writing standards — for example, sentence case instead of title case, bullet points end with full stops, passive voice was avoided.
- Removal of unnecessary repetition to improve clarity and readability.
E-commerce Website + Legal Disclaimers

- Gender-neutral (in Polish, nouns, adjectives, verbs, pronouns, and numerals are gendered).
- Creative adaptation of headings.
- Direct, friendly, and engaging tone of the main marketing sections.
- Formal register in legal disclaimers, addressing the reader in the third person (“user”) instead of “you.”
