Independent Translator / Proof-reader
Completely bilingual in French and English, and relying on numerous experiences abroad within diverse fields of work and studies (education, translation, tourism, reception, law, etc), I am looking forward to apply my expertise and knowledge about the Anglo-Saxon language and culture. Serious and thorough in my work I know how to respect deadlines for a task whilst making sure the vocabulary used in the transcription fits both the original content but also the understanding of the targeted reader. The one thing I like the most about translating is getting to read and learn about various and different topics.
