Why Choose Me

1. Marketing Insight that Sells

With a background in Translation and an MBA in Marketing, I create Italian texts that don’t just read well — they perform. Every translation is crafted to engage your audience and support your client’s business goals.

2. Expertise Across Key Industries

From fashion and cosmetics to engineering and automation, I bring deep knowledge of diverse sectors. This ensures terminology accuracy, brand consistency, and a message that feels authentic to each industry.

3. Cultural & Business Understanding

Years of direct collaboration with Italian and German clients — and two published books on cross-cultural communication — give me a unique perspective on how language, culture, and strategy work together to achieve results.

About 

Who I am

I am a native Italian translator with over twenty years of experience. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Translation and Interpreting and a Master of Business Administration with a focus on Marketing.

I work with translation agencies and Italian SMEs that operate in the international market.

I consider myself a privileged translator. Over the years, the trust I have gained from my clients has enabled me to personally meet their customers and gain first-hand experience of the impact translations have on a successful marketing strategy.

This unique perspective has inspired me to document and analyse my experiences from a cultural, psychological and linguistic point of view in two books and undertake activities to raise awareness of these issues (My Publications).

If you are looking for a translator with a multidisciplinary and client-oriented approach, I am the right person for you.

We sell display stands for shops and businesses through e-commerce. Elena researched how the pharmacy sector is structured in Germany, where physical and e-commerce channels coexist. She also studied German and Italian keywords to optimise our contents, ensuring consistency with the Analytics results. Based on these results, we created a landing page containing bespoke German and Italian texts.
