Bio

Thanks for visiting my profile.

Let me introduce myself: I’m a native French & Spanish > English
translator and I've been working in this industry since 2011.

I specialised in technical translations and have done so since graduating with an MA in Interpreting and Translation from the University
of Bath, UK.

Having honed my
skills translating and proofreading documents for some of the biggest names
in the aeronautical industry, such as Airbus and Turbomeca
(now Safran Helicopter Engines), I went freelance in 2020 to broaden my horizons and translate texts in other sectors (H&S, construction, food, travel and tourism,).
