I am a freelance writer/translator currently living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where I am writing a novel and working on translation projects.

I work in the language pairs: Spanish to English and French to English. I was born in Paris, France, and grew up in Calgary, Canada; both French and English are my native languages.

I have a Bachelor of Science in physics (Texas A&M 2008) and specialize in technical or scientific translations. Having studied advanced maths, thermodynamics, statistics, chemistry, mechanics, etc, I am very comfortable with abstract scientific concepts in a way few translators are.

Some projects recently completed:

Although I ended up getting a degree in physics, my aptitude and heart were always directed towards creative writing and journalism. Now I've dedicated my life to traveling the world searching for good waves to surf, and writing professionally.

If you look closely at my CV, you will notice that I do not have a degree in translation, and that I have only been translating for about a year and a half. Don't let this fool you! I have very strong language skills, and provide translations that are as good or better than those of many highly experienced translators. In fact, I guarantee that you will be impressed with my work; if you are not, I won't charge you!

Although technical translations are my forte, I charge a competitive rate for a high-quality translation of any kind of material: translation/transcription of audio files, advertisements, an important letter, movie scripts, websites, anything. I am available to work nights and weekends, and I am organized and dedicated. I am also available for simultaneous interpreting in Chile, Argentina or Uruguay.

I am also specialized in translation from Uruguayan and Argentine Spanish to English in a way few gringos are! Having lived with Uruguayos and Argentinos for over five years, and now having lived in both Uruguay and Argentina, I have an intimate feel for this South American flavor of Spanish, with its colorful language and wonderful idioms. Che, boludo... cebame un mate!

I really appreciate and understand the importance of maintaining the flavor of the translated text, as well as attempting to transmit the cultural subtleties of meaning.

I hope to hear from you soon!
