Bio
With a love of languages I started visiting France in my teens on a French exchange, and was a jeune fille au pair in my 20s. As I have a love of my own native language too I very much enjoyed focusing my skills to do a MSc in Translation studies. 
My hobbies and interests are varied which helps me approach a variety of translation texts. I’m interested in politics and keeping abreast of current affairs in France. I’m interested in science and technology and enjoy translating in these areas.
