Bio
I am a Greek Doctor(PhD) in Design theory, a Product Design Engineer and a Civil Engineer.

I offer high quality translation/proofreading/subtitling services in the following combinations:
english to greek,
german to greek,
danish to greek,

greek to english,
german to english,
danish to english,

I am fully qualified to work with technical language in mostly Greek, English and German in the following:

-product design of physical products such as headphones, headsets, Bluetooth devices, docking stations
-product specifications, product manuals, product catalogues etc.
-design theory, Design Conceptualization, Product development etc.
-structural Engineering, building materials, hydraulic systems etc.

More about my qualifications and examples of my work:

I hold a PhD in Product Design from the Technical University of Copenhagen, Denmark,
a MSc degree in Design and Innovation from the Technical University of Copenhagen, Denmark,
an Academic Profession Diploma in Architecture from the Technical University of Berlin,
a MSc in Experimental Hydraulics from the National Technical University of Athens and
a BSc in Civil Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens.

I am fully proficient in Greek (native), English (Cambridge Proficiency) and German (Kleines Deutsches Sprachdiplom, Goethe Institut) and possess good knowledge in Danish (Module 3.2) and basic knowledge in Spanish (A2).

I recently completed a Post Doctorate project at Imperial College London on integrating micro sensors in office equipment, such as headphones, docking stations, keyboards, etc.

My PhD diploma was in the comfort assessment of products such as headphones and Bluetooth headsets, hence I am quite familiar with the life cycle of products and the product development processes of various product families and Design Theory aspects.
My PhD methodology received a showstopper award at the Design Fair in Berlin for Best Product in collaboration with the funding design firm of headphones, GN Netcom.

To read my PhD thesis, please, see link here: http://orbit.dtu.dk/en/publications/assessment-methods-for-comfort-of-consumer-products-at-early-stages-of-the-development-process(dc557d24-1e2f-460c-b830-8e66357e408d).html

As an academic I have 2 publications in top design engineering journals (http://content.iospress.com/articles/work/wor2399, http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0003687016300345)

and 4 published papers in respective conferences.

In my past career as a civil engineer working in Athens, Greece. I engaged myself with building materials, project supervision and project management providing me with a good knowledge of structural and hydraulics engineering materials. I have also worked as a civil engineer in both English and Danish, so i possess good knowledge of aspects of structural engineering in English and Danish as well.

In my free time I write for the Greek newspaper LIFO. Please, access some of the published articles here:
