Bio
My specialisations are government and politics, though I'm always happy to consider other assignments if I feel I can do them justice. I'm also happy to offer US to UK English localisation services.

I have many years of experience working within the UK government sector, in a variety of translation, policy and management roles. I have extensive experience of editing texts, and in monitoring compliance with corporate standards.

As a freelancer, I've worked on a variety of translation and editing projects, including press releases, promotional materials, user guides and general business documentation. I've also been involved in work for a couple of major international conferences, translating and editing preparatory materials, and proofreading session transcripts. Please feel free to contact me for more information.
