Over nearly a decade and a half, I have amassed a wealth of experience in technical translation, marketing translation, business translation and translation for the horticultural and agricultural industries. I also have an in-depth understanding of the translation industry, customer needs and expectations and what makes a good translation.

Business: business marketing, websites, training materials, internal documentation, meeting minutes, SAP, financial reports, contracts, legal

Computing/IT: guides and manuals, user interfaces, help files, websites, software localisation, hardware specifications
