Bio
To produce truly great work a translator needs to have:

A LOVE OF LANGUAGES

My interest in languages was sparked at school, and cemented by the three years I lived in the French-speaking part of Switzerland during my teens, where language lessons were supplemented by total immersion in the culture.

I gained a BA Joint Hons French and German at the University of Nottingham in 2002 (including one semester at the University of Mainz's Faculty of Applied Linguistics and Cultural Studies in Germersheim, Germany, and one semester at the University of Avignon, France) and achieved an MA in literary translation at the University of East Anglia in 2003.

During my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees I also enjoyed learning and studying Dutch and Occitan (Provençal).

A LOVE OF TRANSLATION

From my university days onwards I have done numerous small translations, in particular in the fields of music and religion.

I am a voracious reader, and enjoy creative writing, both of which inform my translation work. This is obviously the case in the field of literature and poetry, but equally true in all areas. I relish finding le mot juste.

A LOVE OF PRECISION

I have 18 months' experience at a translation company as an in-house translation checker (proofreader). The company dealt mainly with engineering and chemical patents; this extended the range of subjects I feel comfortable tackling, and honed my already excellent attention to detail.

A LOVE OF A JOB WELL DONE

I am available for work at any time, but would prefer deadlines of longer than one week. This enables me to give each and every job the time and consideration it deserves.
