Bio

Hi, I'm James.


I’ve been a keen language learner from a young age. At one point in my childhood, I could say “my name is James” in 50 languages, but more recently, I’ve been able to direct energy and intrigue in a more useful direction.


After studying French at the University of Edinburgh, which included an Erasmus year in France and a year-long course in Catalan, I moved to Spain, where I’ve been for the past four years.


Most of my translation work has been in the education, tourism, health and film industries. On top of this, I have worked as a subtitler for a variety of TV series and as copywriter in the education and tourism sectors.


To further enhance my profile, I'm currently preparing to take the IoL Diploma in Translation from Spanish to English.
