I am native Hungarian philologist-teacher, translator, interpreter, data protection specialist. I studied at Voronezh State University (1986-87) and graduated in University of Latvia (Latvijas Universitāte) with a state scholarship (1987-1993), majored and specialized in Russian language and literature. I also passed the state exam in Latvian language. In 2002 I completed the training and passed the exam for certified casino dealer (American Roulette, Poker and Draw Boker, BlackJack), as well as the exam for certified (sworn) translator professional at the Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE) (2006). Since 2005 I run a small 24/7 translation office in Budapest. I collect owls, antique jewellery and Herend porcelain. Besides Russian and Latvian, I work in English, German, medical Latin; have basic reading skills in Italian (understanding of other Slavic languages: Czech, Slovak, Croatian, Bulgarian and Polish; basic Kazakh). My main interests: medicine (especially obstetrics-gynaecology, surgery and oncology) and dentistry; music (especially jazz and its history), language and linguistics, literature, mountaineering, history of the Bee Gees, history of the English royal family and its members. The purpose of my presence on English-language Wikipedia is to translate Hungarian articles that deserve the interest of a wide audience.

Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction and I would be grateful for any updates, responses, clarifications, corrections, etc.
