I am a qualified French freelance translator with two years' experience in the profession and am always happy to get in touch with more people to work for or in partnership with.

I provide French translation services and other related language services.

My goal is to provide you with the highest-quality, affordable services available and I will go the extra mile to reach my goal.

BACKGROUND
I hold a degree in English studies from the Institut Catholique de Paris (2001) and another in Librarianship and Information Management from the Ecole de Bibliothecaires et Documentalistes, also in Paris (2003). After my studies I worked as a Document Manager with an international asset management company - Horizon Asset and Investment Management - for two years. I then moved to Edinburgh in Scotland where I graduated - Post Graduate Diploma - in Translation and Technology at Heriot Watt University (2007). Since then, I have been working as a translator for different companies and organizations, some of which have become regular customers.

EXPERIENCE
So far, I have worked with governmental organisations, naval architects, content engineers, graphic designers, audio-visual technicians, Bible translators, Educational Media producers, NGOs, video game producers, individual professionals and also for translation agencies both in France and in Britain.

I will provide you with affordable, high quality translating and other language related services such as proof reading, website localisation, interpreting (consecutive).
I will do the work within the deadline we will have agreed on.

I translate webpages, marketing leaflets, educational papers, booklets, instruction manuals, DVD scripts, technical articles, conference reports, promotional material for retailers, educational guides, press articles, mail, etc
