About
Hello, I'm Boris Kimel 👋
I am a seasoned freelance translator and linguist specializing in translating, localizing, and reviewing content from English and German into Russian.
With years of industry experience, I help companies and creators bridge the language gap. I ensure that software, technical documentation, and marketing materials read naturally and carry the exact intent, tone, and precision of the original source.
Because I specialize in localizing software, apps, and websites, I appreciate the value of clean, performant, and accessible digital products. This site is a reflection of that philosophy: built without heavy tracking scripts or bloated frameworks, focusing instead on speed, readability, and content.
Areas of Expertise
