About me
Translator and Copy-editor working with education and international development clients.
I work with NGOs, educational organisations, charitable foundations and boutique translation companies to get their publications fit for purpose.
My clients count on me to get their projects off the ground, expand their reach and hit the right note with their target market.
With my 18 years of experience, I have a strong track record of delivering carefully researched, engaging and fluent English.
I provide a responsive and organised service, and guarantee high standards for every project, including to tight deadlines.
I work regularly with non-profit organisations to produce English content that articulates their message clearly and faithfully.
Prior to going freelance in 2008, I worked in-house as a translator and proofreader within an international organisation.
As a member of PLAIN, I’m passionate about clarity in writing, especially when communicating information to the public.
