CV
Presentation :
If you have customers, suppliers or employees in Quebec, you know the importance of communicating with them in French. Your communication may take the form of memos, letters, manuals, advertising, to name but a few, all requiring accurate and timely translation.
This is where I can help. I am a highly motivated translator with over 25 years of experience in translation, revision and proofreading. I am accustomed to working quickly and accurately without supervision, to taking initiative, to organizing and prioritizing my work and to meeting tight deadlines.

Qualifications :
Certified Translator, English to French, Association of Translators and Interpreters of Ontario
Professional experience :
For the past 15 years I worked as a translator for a major Canadian retailer. My job entailed translation, revision and proofreading of a wide variety of documents, including instructional memos and letters requiring clarity and precision, complex manuals requiring extensive research and attention to detail, and various forms of advertising requiring a thorough knowledge and sense of the Quebec culture and market. In the fast-paced climate of retail in which I worked, I was used to multi-tasking and completing my assignments with minimal supervision, under pressure, to meet tight deadlines.
Prices :
I am at your disposal to discuss your translation needs and how I may be of help to you. As a freelance translator, my general fee is 16˘ a word, but if you wish, I would be more than happy to do a short “trial translation”, free of charge (200 words or less).
Working method :
My computer is fully equipped with Windows XP, Word 2002, Excel 2002, Power Point 2002, Acrobat Reader 5.0, Publisher, Termium Terminology Database and E-mail.
