Bio
I am a native English speaker with a BA in French and Japanese, as well as over 10 years of experience as a freelance translator of French and Japanese to English (UK, US, CA and AU).

I have experience in a wide variety of areas, including but not limited to: legal, finance, technical (software and others), oenology/viticulture, travel/tourism and marketing, along with some literary translation of short stories. Projects have included 25,000 words of marketing and promotional articles for a Swiss magazine, a 4,000 word legal contract and 70,000 words spanning a variety of articles, reviews and blog posts on luxury items, watches and travel for a website.

In 2015 I worked on a 100,000 word project related to history and architecture, translated several hundred thousand words related to a military project, and also worked on the translation of a French indie game and a title for a well-known Japanese games company.






I also translate texts relating to cybersecurity and other technical fields on a regular basis.
