About me...
A warm welcome to my D.K.S. website.
My name is Dominika Katarzyna Sakalauskiene (née Senczyszyn). I was born on October 8, 1984, in Poland. Since 2006, I have been living in Ireland, where I found a new home and a place to grow. Since January 2021, I have been residing in charming Swinford, County Mayo, where I continue my life's journey.
By profession, I am an Economics Technician, which allowed me to understand the fundamental principles of economics and business. However, I constantly strive to expand my knowledge and improve my skills. Currently, I am a student of English Philology at the University of Economics and Human Sciences in Warsaw. Continuous development is extremely important to me, as it enables me to better meet the requirements of my work and effectively serve my clients.
My work is not limited to translation and assisting - it is a passion and commitment that define my approach to work. My experience gained both in Poland and abroad provides a solid foundation for the highest quality services I deliver. I am constantly developing and participating in numerous training courses to be ready for the most demanding challenges. My dedication to every task entrusted to me translates into the full satisfaction of every client.
About D.K.S.
D.K.S., or Dominika Katarzyna Sakalauskiene, was established on November 16, 2018, in Knock, County Mayo. From the very beginning, my business focused mainly on providing interpreting services for various institutions, such as the HSE (Hospitals, Private Clinics, Doctors) and government units (Police, Courts, Tusla, Legal Advisors, Lawyers, Notaries, City Councils).
In 2020, my offer was expanded to include written translations, which are carried out in Poland within 24 hours, even for very urgent orders. Thanks to this, I can quickly and effectively serve my clients' needs, ensuring high-quality translations on short notice.
In 2021, I also introduced a new service - Personal Assistant (PA). I am ready to provide comprehensive support to my clients, helping them organize daily matters, manage their time, and handle various formalities. Thanks to this service, my clients can enjoy greater freedom and efficiency in their personal and professional lives.
