Bio

An Executive Consultant at Protean Creatives International, I am also a translator and interpreter working in French, English, Haitian Creole and Spanish. A native speaker of three languages (French, English and Haitian Creole) I have attended educational institutions in all three from primary school until graduate-level.

After completing a baccalaureat degree in French Literature with honours, I pursued undergraduate-level studies in Political Science, Anthropology and Latin American studies in French at the Université de Montréal, with frequent exchange classes in English at neighbouring Concordia and McGill University. My graduate-level studies in Community Economic Development (with a concentration in International Development), furthered a focus on social sciences. These were undertaken in English at Concordia University's School of Community and Public Affairs. Finally, I spent two years have studying performing arts (dance, music and voice) - in English and in French!

In Montreal I spent 8 years in a bilingual non-profit organization where in addition to producing all public documents in English and French, discussions, trainings and facilitation were done in both languages, also. Such work required a very fine understanding of language subtleties, as both speakers and audiences were of varied understandings of target languages (most of the participants were immigrants who spoke English or French as second or third languages). I have a rich history in public speaking and facilitation, having participated in and produced community radio, documentaries, conferences, university presentations and workshops in English, French and Haitian Creole (often simultaneously).

All of this and additional life and work experience make me particularly well-suited to contribute to your translation, interpretation and voice over projects.
