My Background

I completed MSc studies in Land Surveying and Real Estate Management from Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences in Poland in 2005. After that I started my professional career as a junior land surveyor. I was employed in the GIS unit of the Polish National Forestry Department in Brzeg. However, I decided to pursue further studies. In 2006 I moved to Britain and in 2007 I completed  the MA in Translation with Language Technology, with Polish and English as my languages.
