Occupation President & Founder of LinguaLinx, Inc.
Location Cohoes, New York, United States
Introduction As founder and president of LinguaLinx Language Solutions, Inc., I hold three degrees, including two masters from the University at Albany, State University of New York. I have over twenty years of translation industry experience, having worked as an interpreter and lived in Russia, working as a resident director as well as holding a faculty position in the Department of Foreign Languages at Moscow State University. In addition to my academic work, I have worked for several translation companies, primarily in sales. Since the launch of LinguaLinx Language Solutions, Inc. in 2002, the firm has consistently grown by more than 200% annually and ranked among the Top 35 Technology Firms in the upstate New York region by the American City Business Journals (Albany Business Review). I was lucky to be honored as a recipient of the prestigious American City Business Journals' (Albany Business Review) 40 Under Forty award in 2005, which recognizes outstanding business leaders under the age of 40. In addition, I have had the opportunity to travel the world and present on topics that are important to the ever-growing translation industry.
