About me
Curieuse et passionnée par les langues et les cultures, j’ai pensé conjuguer mes intérêts en me lançant dans la traduction! Mais comme il ne suffit pas, pour bien traduire, de maîtriser sa langue maternelle et d’être bilingue (oui, traduire s’apprend!), j’ai réorienté mes études.
Après avoir obtenu une majeure en anthropologie et deux certificats en traduction, je poursuis des études supérieures à l’Université de Montréal. *** Driven by curiosity and a passion for languages and cultures, I decided to combine the two, and set my sights on a career in translation. But, since I believe that to be a good translator it is not enough to be fluent in one’s mother tongue or perfectly bilingual —after all, translation is an acquired skill!— I chose to take my studies in a new direction. Having obtained a major in Anthropology and two Certificates in Translation, I am currently enrolled in graduate studies at the Université de Montréal.
