Bio

I am a native UK English speaker with a degree in French and German and over ten years of translation and localisation experience, gained through two years of in-house translation and localisation positions, followed by 10 years of full-time freelance translation work.

I've honed my language skills and cultural awareness through extended periods of travel and living abroad, notably including eight years living and working in France (Aix en Provence, Lille, Strasbourg, and now Voujeaucourt) and two years living and working in French-speaking Canada (Montréal). I moved back to France in 2017 and continue to use both French and English on a daily basis in both my personal life and on a professional basis.

I have significant experience of translation in the following domains:

- business (including general legal documents, such as Terms and Conditions)

- marketing

- tourism

- video games

- books and comics

- scripts

- magazines (video games/art)

- technical documents (specifications, instruction manuals, tender applications, etc.)

- IT documents

- press releases

- public sector

- general healthcare

I have also previously translated engineering and military texts. Serious and hard-working, I take pride in providing high-quality, well-researched translations that convey both the style and the meaning of the source text. I work quickly and efficiently to ensure deadlines are met.

I am a proficient user of Microsoft Office, SDL Trados (2007, Studio 2017 and Studio 2019), MemoQ and XTM.

I don't use Machine Translation or accept jobs for which I don't think I'm a suitable candidate.
