About me

I specialise in financial/legal translations for the banking industry, particularly financial statements, press releases, brochures, reports from rating agencies and analysts, legal agreements, bylaws etc.
After finishing my MA in Translation I worked as Investor Relations Junior Manager for an Italian banking institution (UniCredito Italiano) and as Programme Manager for probably the best Business School in Europe (INSEAD).
I am now a freelance translator and I teach Business Italian within foreign companies.



I have translated financial and legal documents for a few large Italian and Dutch companies. Some recent examples include UniCredito Italiano, Fortis Bank, Rabobank, ABN Amro and Cordares.
I also do volunteer translations for two international NGO's: Amnesty International (Courts sentences, briefings, annual reports) and WWF Italia (press releases).

I am registered as sworn translator (English/Italian/English) at the Court of Utrecht, the Netherlands.
