About Frederika

I was born in Limassol, Cyprus and migrated to Australia in 1974. I have a Diploma in Interpreting and Translating from R.M.I.T University and a Graduate Diploma in Educational Administration from the University of Melbourne. For many years I worked with the Victorian Education Department- Student Services -assisting hundreds of non-English speaking background children integrate smoothly into the school community. I've also worked as an Education Officer with the Equal Opportunity Commission, as a Translator with Centrelink and as a journalist with SBS Radio. Articles of mine have occasionally been published in "Neos Kosmos" newspaper. I'm currently in the process of translating an interesting Autobiography of an elderly Australian-Greek man who wants to leave it as a legacy for his grandchildren. I love reading and writing literature and poetry. My writing comes mainly from the heart and from personal experiences. I write to express my feelings and to know I'm not alone!
