Bio
I am Merlin Kagho Foujio, Translator/subtitler trained at the Advanced School of Translators and Interpreters of the University of Buea in Cameroon. As a native Cameroonian with " great linguistic and technical skills, I alternately attended the University of Dschang and the University of Buea. Having been attracted by my two passions, communication and translation, I joined the University of Buea's Advanced School of Translators and Interpreters, from which I graduated with a degree in Translation/Subtitling, having previously obtained a Master I in English Language and Linguistics. Since then, I have been a freelance translator with four (7) years of experience. I am able to combine speed and efficiency to produce a quality translation. Translation is a passion for me and is part of my daily life. Entrust me with your tasks, and you will not be disappointed. My motto Quality, Style and Creativity is an illustration of this.
