Bio

• Six years of professional translation experience
• BA (hons) degree in International Relations from University of Exeter
• MSc (ongoing) - Capacities for Managing Development (Open University)

• Corporate Social Responsibility professional at BVSC

With an academic background in international politics, I focus on translations in the fields of government, politics and the EU. However, I also have a professional background in Marketing, Education and Tourism & Travel so can apply a practical expertise to translation in these fields.

Punctuality, accuracy and concise language are imperative to my work.

Keeping up-to-date with popular culture in the UK and la Métropole through newspapers, radio and friends in both countries, my translations are relevant, modern and idiomatic where appropriate.
