Bio

Well-rounded, bilingual, qualified translator

Experienced in a wide range of texts: training manuals - environmental and sustainability - diversity and inclusion - fashion catalogues and e-commerce - beauty (hair and cosmetics) - travel itineraries and brochures - exhibition information sheets (arts and crafts) - blog entries - marketing newsletters and social media posts - CVs.

As well as translation, my services also include revision, proofreading, editing, transcription and English tuition.

I have a CIoL Diploma in Translation, an MA in English. Literature is my passion (Modernism in particular) and I am an enthusiastic world traveller and foodie!

Volunteering

I currently edit and translate for KidsOut - World Stories, the International Choral Bulletin, and TED Translators. In the past, I have completed projects for The National Trust and Signalong, and edited friends' BA and MA dissertations.

A brief personal background

I grew up in Switzerland and Italian is my native language;
I learned French at 6 and English at 12. I moved to the UK in my late teens, where I completed my higher education, and then spent three years in the US after settling back in London.

Growing up in a multilingual country, I have always been fascinated by how languages build and express cultural and individual identities. I soon developed a passion for translation, as it allows to share these identities, breaking down barriers and broadening mind and heart.

I worked for more than ten years as a university
administrator in faculties of science, technology, art and humanities. Working in different disciplines, with international colleagues and students, enhanced my sensitivity to contextual nuances of meaning.
