English to French translator, editor and proofreader

Professional profile:

I started up as a freelance French translator right after I graduated in Translation and Interpreting. While I choose to specialize mainly in the marketing and advertising field, I have a broad range of interests and a thirst for knowledge regarding anything related in the cultural, medical and localization content. During my studies, I did an internship at Cineuropa, an european press agency located in Brussels specialising in films and the promotion of European cinema (references available upon request).

Up to now I have worked with several international

translation agencies. I have also worked on a regular basis with Translators Without Borders (TWB) helping different NGOs in the fields of health care, gender equality, humanitarian aid and environment and climate actions.
