About me

I translate from French into English in the
following areas: marketing, management,
human resources, journalism, public
relations, travel, social sciences,
humanities, literature. I also edit English-
language documents written by native French
speakers or translated by other translators.

I worked four summers in a row as a translator for Arthur Andersen International in Paris, translating legal, marketing, management consulting, HR, government and financial documents.

I have worked as a freelance translator for ten years, translating a wide variety of documents, including websites, marketing materials, management consulting reports, market surveys, focus group reports, HR policies, proposals, newsletters, newspaper and magazine articles, political analyses, scholarly articles and travel brochures.

I have Master's degrees in French translation
and Clinical Psychology and a Bachelor's
degree in Journalism (all with high honors).
I am a skilled writer, having worked for
seven years as a journalist and public
relations writer and editor. I also worked
for six years in the fields of career
development and human resources.

While a career counselor, I revised and
edited a book on career decision-making and
job search strategies. I continue to write
occasional articles for local papers as a
freelance writer.

I always respect client deadlines and have
received excellent feedback for well-written,
accurate translations. I make sure the
terminology I select is up-to-date and
accurate by doing Internet research and
consulting with other translators or experts,
while maintaining strict confidentiality.
