Bio
I am a professional French → English and Russian → English translator with 17+ years’ experience specialising in legal, financial and technical documentation. My work includes high-stakes legal translation (contracts, agreements, court files, transcripts, banking documents), and a wide range of technical projects across automotive, engineering, and power-generation sectors. I have translated more than 3 million words of technical material for PSA’s Chinese joint venture and served as lead translator for a major European legal case. Clients rely on my accuracy, confidentiality and consistency across large, complex projects. Trados Studio 2024 user.
