About me
I am a New Zealander currently living in Buenos Aires. I have an academic backgound in economics, translation studies and political science and I always welcome correspondence and new opportunities.

Brief summary of current translation and editing work (primary end-client: investment bank):

Economic reports: daily publications on contemporary issues in leading economies: monetary policy analysis (QE, asset purchases, fx interventions, CBPP); EU institutional framework and policy (EMU, ECB, EFSF/ESM, SMP); macroeconomic outlooks (growth models, deindustrialisation, productive specialisation, demographics); fiscal policy…

Market reports: forex (technical analysis), fixed income (EZ bonds), earnings publications and analysis: energy sector (conventional and renewable), capital goods, banking (Basel, Solvency), consumer goods, automotive industry

I also continue to regularly translate for:
An international banking association (microfinance, savings banks in developing countries)
Tourism organisations in New Caledonia (promotional material, press releases, websites etc)
Solidarités (a French humanitarian NGO - alongside a Proz team of dedicated volunteers)
