TRANSLATION – MY PROFESSION
In our globalised world, where borders are becoming blurred, travel is becoming easier and English is consolidating its role as the new lingua franca, translation and interpreting have an increasingly important role to play...

TRANSLATION: MORE THAN JUST A JOB; A TRUE VOCATION
I am a qualified translator with ten years’ experience offering reliable, high quality language services that include translation, revision, proofreading and editing. My working languages are German, English and Russian, and I translate exclusively into French, my mother tongue.
I am a musician and music lover; I enjoy reading and have a passion for all forms of art. I specialise in the translation of texts that require a high degree of creativity, especially literary, journalistic, advertising and narrative material. As a keen advocate of human rights and environmental protection, I am committed to using my skills to support the work of charities and non-governmental organisations.

Training and experience
My extensive experience, perfectionist’s eye for detail and keen sense of curiosity mean that I am well placed to provide quality translations in my specialist areas. I am extremely conscientious and have a thorough knowledge of the grammar, spelling and typographical conventions of the French language.
Specialist fields
As I am naturally drawn to creative rather than technical fields, I have chosen to specialise in texts that require excellent written skills and a real flair for language: magazines and websites for charities and cultural institutions, tourist brochures, memoirs, educational and training material, advertisements, recipes, communication and correspondence, etc.
