Bio
I became a freelance translator in March 2004, after various professional experiences and degrees in Great Britain and in France. This decision probably stemmed from having 2 mother tongues, hence a natural inclination towards languages, together with the occasional translations I carried out along the way.
Thanks to my university degrees, I have acquired a solid understanding of environmental sciences, the automotive industry and engineering (energy, mechanical, civil, electrical).
I work for several translation agencies, with end clients ranging from single individuals and SMEs to multinational corporations (Total, Volkswagen, ExxonMobil, Veolia, Toyota, Tata Steel, Wärtsilä...), as well as direct customers I acquired over the years.
