Bio

Recent publications:

I love words; I always have. I love languages and am always trying to learn at least one. I have a degree in languages from the University of Cambridge and an MA from the University of Bristol and I also hold DALF (Diplôme approfondi de la langue française/Diploma in advanced French language studies) at level C2. I have the Diploma in Translation (Institute of Linguists) in both French-English and German-English; I am CIoL accredited in all my language pairs and ITI accredited in Czech, Slovak and German to English.

I  worked in the languages industry since 2010 and am now a full-time freelancer. However I have several years' experience as a PM in an agency so am fully aware of the pressures on the other side of the desk.

My translations are always accurate, as I research things obsessively, and formatted to match the layout of the original as closely as possible. You can expect the highest quality from me.
