Since 1995 she has been taking care of proper work organization, project management, finances, relations with customers and vendors. An efficient optimist. Full of energy, even with a bit of a workaholic jam. Outside of work, a stay-at-home type of person, wife, mother and, above all, grandmother, who makes the best dumplings!

Iza Magiera

Project manager – customer service

With an incredibly great memory for details, names and events, diligence, ability to analyse facts logically and great experience as project manager – that’s the best description of Iza! Her favourite phrase that she hears from customers is: “I need it for yesterday.”
As project manager, she maintains very good relationships with our clients and coordinates the exchange of information between them and translators. She cares for the proper communication in our in-house team. A pro in multi-tasking. She approaches difficult tasks with emotional distance which makes her very efficient.
She spreads her smile because, like she says: “A day without a smile is a lost day” – even when she hardly leaves her chair in the office to do her job as smoothly and fast as possible. She loves hiking – both in the neighbourhood and to further destinations, like Beskidy mountains. No matter where you are, it’s fine if you’re on the move!
She is a typical cat-lover, she loves cats and any cat-related gadgets. She herself already has four pets at home and this process continues. She loves Zumba classes, indoor cycling and gym exercises.

Agnieszka Wróbel

DTP – text editing

A vigorous graduate of School of Computer Science. She has been with DAMAR from almost the very beginning, so she knows all the anecdotes and funny stories from the company’s past. Irreplaceable when it comes to files that need to be retrieved. She can dig out any document from archive, just like an X-Files agent.
Her duties include pre-translation DTP and final DTP on the already translated texts. She is like a living encyclopaedia of text editors. She works without hesitation and cares for details. Performance is her middle name.
In her free time, she catches up on movie titles from her must-watch list, which mainly consists of biographical and fact-based movies. She is also a great fan of cabarets. A vegan diet? No way! Aga is a real meat-eater. At first sight, spiky hair and sonorous voice, but, a great pal indeed!

Monika Bomba

DTP – text editing

A graduate of School of Computer Science. She works in the DTP department. Great diligence and accuracy are synonyms of her work style. Her long-term experience is undoubtedly a great advantage.
She always wins battle against complicated files and formats. Difficult and demanding tasks are her speciality. She has eyes like a hawk. When preparing documents for translation and processing target texts, she will not miss any mistake or omission. Summer morning walks to the office get her into good mood and positive attitude towards tasks that await her.
Hot-tempered personality? It certainly may not be said about Monika, who is a calm and steady person. She loves books and gardening. She never says no to exciting roller-coaster rides and spontaneous trips.

Ania Walaszek

Project manager – customer service

M.A. graduated in Polish philology form the Silesian University. Besides being project manager, her job includes also editing texts in terms of proper style and correctness in Polish language.

She also wants to learn more foreign languages, mainly French and Spanish. She takes her first tentative steps in translating.
She is a real bookworm. She cannot imagine her life without books. An escapist fascinated with the art of writing. Her dream is to write and publish her own book. Her motto in life is “Je suis prest” (meaning in French “I’m ready”.) After working hours, a beginning housekeeper.
