For the past eight years, I have worked as a translator,
interpreter (pairs: FR/ES/RU>EN and EN><FR) and editor full-time. I am a UK national based in Martel, France
and was educated in France, Spain, the UK, Russia and Czechia. I have worked in France, Spain, Chile, the
UK and ROI as a linguist and language teacher.
I work regularly for several well-known
agencies and for independent clients, specialising in legal, media and PR
projects.
I have worked in linguistic quality
management at two city law firms in London (including at Herbert Smith
Freehills, in 2016-2017). I also worked in higher education marketing (using
French, Spanish and Russian on a daily basis) for Bloomberg Institute,
Bloomberg L.P. in 2013-2014, and have taught Spanish and French at secondary-school
level (Wycombe Abbey School, 2011-2012).
Drawing on four years' experience as a linguist
and caseworker in the humanitarian sector (with VE Global, the British Red
Cross International Family Tracing and Refugees Service, and with Detention
Action (UK)), I also have a keen interest in humanitarian and social sciences
projects.
My typical daily capacity is 5,000 words
for translation projects. I have licences for SDL Trados and MemoQ.
