      Legal & Financial Translator, Editor and Proofreader (French to English)

      An EMT technical translator, based in the Paris area, committed to producing high quality and accurate translations. I am here to accompany you from A to Z on your translations: compiling glossaries, last-minute revisions, proofreading. After several years working in the financial and legal fields, I trusted my instinct and set up my translating business without ever looking back! I enjoy getting into the nuts and bolts of a document and learning more about my clients' businesses. I also love the human aspect of my profession which brings me in direct contact with my clients to discuss their translation needs. Show less
