Bio

My main language pair is English to French (my native language), but I can also translate from Spanish and simplified Chinese to French (France + Canada).

I have 28 years of professional experience, including 12 abroad (2 years in the UK at SDL [now RWS], then 10 years in Spain first as an in-house translator and later as a freelancer).

In 1996, I also completed a Biology and Medical language course at the French Open University. 

Freelancing since 2003, I have focused over the last 15 years chiefly on revision. During all these years, I became familiar with a lot of contents and all kind of documentation. I work daily with SDL Studio and am also proficient with Transit, Wordfast, XTM, to name a few. 

Please check out my website (allyouneedtranslation.com) and read my recommendations on LinkedIn and ProZ.

Clients describe me as meticulous and punctual—qualities essential for a linguist who is often the final link in the quality‑assurance chain.

我主要翻译英语、西班牙语和简体中文内容为法语(母语),擅长的领域包括医学、汽车、农业机械、软件/互联网等。我也承接法语译文的校对和审校工作。

我拥有28年以上的翻译经验,工作认真负责、注重细节。我曾在英国和西班牙居住和工作共12年,对跨文化交流有深入理解。

1996年我获得翻译硕士学位,毕业后继续深造,完成了法国国家远程教育中心(CNED)的生物与医学语言课程,进一步提升了医学翻译的专业水平。
