I lived in London from 1998 to 2021, but my encounter with languages and cultures started long before and beyond then.
Born and bred in the French Basque Country, I learned Spanish at a young age, growing up on a border town where French and Spanish are widely spoken. I also spent 18 months working in Brazil in 2009 and 2010, which helped perfect my Portuguese.
Living in these countries and breathing in their cultures has given me extensive cultural and linguistic knowledge of my working languages – a skill no textbook can deliver.
I hold a Master’s degree in Translation and Interpreting from the University of Westminster in London. I am a member of the CIOL (MCIL) and CIOL Chartered Linguist.
Before becoming a full-time freelance French translator, I spent several years working in various managerial positions for Hogarth Worldwide, a leading London-based marketing implementation company. I also served as Transcreation Manager for Tag and Translation Project Manager for RR Donnelley.
Dedicated to perfecting your French or English language skills, I’ll help you ace your exams or get you prepared for your new life abroad. Being bilingual is also incredibly marketable on a CV, giving you a great advantage over other job applicants.
