WHO AM I
My name is Vito as you might have guessed from the name of this website. My Italian roots are also revealed in this name. After having worked as a photo studio manager and photographer's rep for 12 years I have worked as a freelance media consultant and lived abroad (Italy and the UK) for 12 years. Needless to say I have picked up a thing or two in those years.
WHAT I DO
It's a common understanding that translators should only translate into their native language. Being brought up bilingual and having spoken English for most of my life, I'm confident to translate English in both directions. I specialize in commercial, creative and media related translations, but I also have an IT background. At times I can also be seen subtitling various video's for Ted Talks, Global voices and YouTube.
