About
Certified Translator and Interpreter
French & Italian to British English
I am a UK-based freelance translator and interpreter with more than 15 years’ professional experience across legal, financial, political and commercial fields. I translate from French and Italian into my native British English, ensuring clarity, precision and texts that withstand professional and legal scrutiny.
My academic background includes an MA in Translation and Interpreting Studies and a Diploma in Public Service Interpreting in English Law (French). I am currently extending my qualifications to include the DPSI in Italian.
My work spans law, finance, EU and international affairs, business, tourism and specialist cultural sectors. I work with major European translation agencies, financial institutions, legal professionals and international organisations.
Alongside written translation, I provide consecutive and simultaneous interpreting for legal, institutional and specialist assignments.
I am a full member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists and work to recognised professional and ethical standards.
