Bio

A degree in electrical engineering and another in translation studies sets me up as a technical translator. In the technical field my interest has always been renewable energy and ecological themes of all kinds, both technical and social and cultural. The imminent climate crisis makes this all the more urgent.

Other interests that inform my translation activities include Russia and its many worlds, including many other of the former Soviet republics, various aspects of spirituality, and classical music. In the early 1990s I ran a small Anglo-Russian magazine and have been informally involved in various exchanges with Russian groups over the years.

My dream would be to be a translator of poetry (and a poet myself!). And to learn a brace of new languages, possibly Arabic and Persian.

Work aside, I am a keen cyclist, runner, baker and gardener.
