I translate from English and Spanish into my native tongue, French. I work in the following fields:
International development
Over the years, I have built up a specialisation in international development. I have translated numerous documents for Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) for a variety of causes that are important to me: democracy, environment, maternal health, children’s rights, gender equality, natural resource management.
I work on annual reports, agreements, press releases, articles, training documents, manuals or websites. I use specific UN terminology where appropriate.
Recent projects include:
- reports on education, scientific research, children in developed countries, gender-based violence, poverty, climate change, female genital mutilation…
- articles on climate change, climate justice, renewable energy, water shortage…
- manuals on prison design, low vision care, programme management…
- localisation of an NGO website
- training materials: communication, project management, WASH…
If you are an NGO or a specialist agency looking for an experienced translator then get in touch.
Tourism
Having graduated in tourism and new technology in 2006, I worked in the tourism field for seven years, first in a marine fisheries centre and then at the Finistère tourist board in Brittany.
As a translator, I draw on this experience to produce texts tailored specifically for the tourism business.
With in-depth knowledge of the sector, I can work on technical documents or craft promotional copy to sell trips, accommodation or destinations.
Recent projects include:
- a guided tour of a religious building
- holiday let websites
- CV and cover letter for a hotel manager specialised in revenue management
- tourist spot newsletter
- video tutorials for tourist industry software (online booking management)

Maritime sector (fisheries, aquaculture and marine environment)
Based in Finistère, Brittany, where the sea is part of everyday life, I have a keen interest in all things maritime. A source of employment, revenue and food for some, an amusement park for others, the ocean is a vital, fragile element.
I spent several months working at Haliotika, the discovery centre of marine fisheries in Guilvinec (Brittany) where I learned about the maritime industry in general and fisheries in particular.
An avid learner, I hone my skills and keep up with change in the industry thanks to online courses, conferences and seminars. I also keep abreast of the news in the maritime sector by reading specialist journals.
Recent projects include:
- articles and press releases on sustainable fisheries and ocean protection
- annual report on an NGO – fishery resource management
- information pack for an aquaculture management plan
- article on the movement of fishermen in India
