Bio

Britannique d’origine, je vis en France depuis 22 ans – je suis mariée à un français – et je suis complètement bilingue. Je suis traductrice indépendante depuis 15 ans, notamment dans les secteurs de politique, restauration, culture et tourisme. Je suis par ailleurs journaliste, et j’écris également pour divers titres Britannique. Pendant 15 ans j'ai collaboré en tant que journaliste interprète à la chaîne d’information multilingue Euronews mais désormais je me consacre entièrement à la traduction.
Parmi mes clients je compte des grandes marques tel Nespresso, Hermès, M&M's, Alain Ducasse ou encore La Macif et TF1, ainsi que des organisations internationales comme l'ONU et des magazines de luxe tel Blush.



I am a journalist of 30 years experience, half of them living in France where I now work as a translator. I have translated everything from psychiatric reports to decorator’s quotes. My skills as a writer enabling me to turn copy into flowing English rather than simply an accurate equivalent. As a journalist I worked extensively for Euronews, a 24-hour news channel where my role included translating live from French to English when required. However I now devote myself entirely to my translation work.
