Never rests on her laures. While studying in Lublin full-time, she started working towards her second degree in applied social studies at the University of Warsaw. The postgraduate studies in specialized translations at Vistula University in Warsaw were just a natural next step. Having a diverse background in the humanities and an inclination for writing proved essential when she was working as an editor, journalist, translator and copywriter. She worked for InStyle magazine, for a Polish online lifestyle service iCzas, and for the past two years she has been freelancing: copywriting, translating, creating Facebook campaigns and writing reviews. At the moment she also teaches in English at Vistula University in Warsaw and the Medical University of Warsaw. |
