Sonia Belfiglio, Native French and Italian speaker – Freelance translator

About

Thanks to my origins I can define myself as bilingual having been raised by Italian parents in a francophone environment. I also studied the English language for which I reach level B in both comprehension and writing. I am very precise and fast in carrying out the tasks assigned to me and I particularly care about punctuality. I also distinguish myself for seriousness and punctuality, I am flexible and have an excellent organizational ability and resistance to stress.
