Dear Sir/Madam,

Since 2008, I’ve been a freelance translator. I translate French into English and English into French.

I’m native French speaker. I’m a top athlete in ice speed skating and I use to speak English since I was a teenager.

I used to translate English documents and articles for school and university, I although used to write my own articles and worked for some associations to build and updates websites.

I use Trados 2009, Microsoft Open Office Professional 2010.

I’ve experience in translating websites, newspapers articles, book descriptions, user manuals. I’ve a great experience in good writing in my mother tongue and English as well.

Herewith I am attaching my CV for your reference.

Regards,
Anne Carole Chantal
