Bio

Benvenuti!



I am a native Italian translator. I was born on an island cradled by the Mediterranean Sea. Italian territory on paper, but closer to Tunis than to Rome. From being an islander to being isolated, the step is very short, and for someone who dreamt of trains and suitcases as a child, the island was clearly too isolated.  I travelled far and wide, I moved to different countries, and I worked hard to clear my mind of a huge amount of cliché that dulled my sight. 


In 2011, I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Modern Languages and Translation. In 2017, I went back to study. I earned a Master's Degree in New Technologies applied to Translation and I specialised myself as an Italian teacher for foreigners. I also worked in different fields and industries, such as IT, Tourism and Hospitality.


Over time, I found out that I feel a huge satisfaction in finding the right phrase, the right word, and the right nuance to communicate a message. I must have been clearly traumatized by the scene of the Italian movie "Palombella Rossa" directed by Nanni Moretti, where the main character slaps a woman who uses incorrect words and screams at her: "Le parole sono importanti!" (Words matter!). 


Whether you are looking for the right words to broadcast your documentaryshort movie, corporate video, video tutorial or any audiovisual content in Italy, I will make sure your product will speak to the target audience taking into account, not only the language but also the culture of the audience.


I am extremely proud of my job. I particularly enjoy how audiovisual translation combines technical and creative skills and, above all, I enjoy being the unseen voice behind the scenes. The comb untangling the knots.


I also provide Machine Translation Post-editing, Transcription and Web pages Localisation services.
