About me

I appreciate the need to ensure that your customer fully understands your correspondence. This is why I believe it to be my duty to have the right knowledge of the type of business you are in, and of the context in which the communication is made.
In translating your documents, business correspondence, brochures, websites, technical documentation and suchlike, I place importance on ensuring that the translated text reads like an original, where the flavour is maintained and presented in an appropriate way and reflects the cultural differences of the target audience..
I understand the effort it has taken to produce your documents in your own native language and the necessity for me to ensure that they are recreated in the target language without being stripped of their effectiveness and impact.
For all these reasons, I will only accept a job if I am totally confident that I have the necessary knowledge of the topic. My areas of expertise include:
o Metal industry and metal working
o Fasteners sectors (metal sheet fasteners)
o Industrial Machinery
o Technical specifications
o Business and Commercial documentation and reports.
o Marketing
o Transportation
o Website Localisation, Catalogues, leaflets and promotional material
o Animals / Pets (cats a specialty)
This list is only a guideline, and is by no means exhaustive. Please feel free to contact us if your requirements are for a topic not listed above. Should I feel that what you require is not within my line of expertise, I will be pleased to direct you to other qualified linguists who are capable of fully satisfying your needs.


Born and raised in Italy, I have been living in the United Kingdom for the last 16 years. For the best part of this time I have worked for a major Multinational Group as Commercial and Technical Manager, selling non-ferrous metals all over the world, to an array of different industrial sectors. This has allowed me to gain an extensive knowledge of business, commercial and technical English, French and Italian. In my role I found myself regularly translating commercial reports, technical specifications, contractual agreements and the likes from one language to the other, both for internal use and for external presentations. I have been working as a freelance for the last few years, helping my customers to overcome language barriers and communicate better with their foreign partners at all levels.
