“Use what feels right. Throw away the rest.”
Passionate about science and the English language, after a few years in the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery, Martina dove head-first into the world of translation, obtaining a three-year degree in Interlingual Mediation Theories and Techniques (or IMTT). Following a brief interlude as a freelancer, she joined the team at ASTW in October 2021, where she deals with patent translations and medical writing. She can’t hide (and couldn’t, even if she wanted to) the cadence of those who live where the Genoese dialect is the real native language. She loves music, cinema, TV series and playing with her nephew Samuel.
