CV
Presentation :
With over six years’ professional experience and a first class BA degree in Translating and Interpreting, I provide fast and accurate translations. Experienced in translating into both US and UK English, I can tailor target texts to suit your precise needs.
My specialisations include IT, marketing and tourism/travel. Past experience includes translating SAP software, magazine articles, flyers, press releases, websites for tourist resorts and many other types of text.
An experienced Trados user, I can utilise existing memories to ensure accurate terminology. In addition, I build up memories and terminology databases for specific customers to aid accuracy and consistency.
I also offer proofreading services for English texts. You can decide on the degree of thoroughness required – just the spelling and grammar or the style as well.
I always deliver on time and take pride in the quality of my work.
Whatever your needs, I am the right translation partner for you.
