I’m French, a professional translator, and I especially appreciate working with people for people.

Yes, I do work with words, or rather messages. The goal of the translated messages, however, is to create a link between people.

My translations help you:

  • make available, in French for your French audience, content that you want to share;
  • make available, in French for your French contacts, legal documents needed to advance a project or an action.

Living with my Australian husband, I quickly realised how easy it was to misunderstand each other. Even though the message seemed simple at first glance. This served me well when I started working as a translator, and encouraged me to check and research everything that wasn’t absolutely clear.

Building bridges

With this in mind, I like to contribute in building virtual bridges between Australia and France, through my translations – helping Australian small businesses and professionals better connect with their French audience.

I’m happy to customise my services to meet your goals. There is always a reason behind a translation. Let’s talk about it.

Translation of Australian legal documents

​When I arrived in Australia, the contrast between the Australian and the French legal systems intrigued me. My curiosity led me to study English-to-French legal translation to better understand the differences in concepts and terminology.

I enjoy

spending time with my family, practising yoga, walking among trees or on the beach, reading (from novels to books on translation, entrepreneurship, sustainability, transpersonal development), listening to podcasts, exploring new interests, keeping abreast with what is happening in France – and simply appreciating life.

When I travel to France, I take in the environment, the language, the atmosphere, and I reconnect with my roots.

I visit friends, family and places I cherish, of course. I also check recent magazines, new shops, raid my favourite bookshops. Savour a French croissant with a coffee, make the most of the French food I love. Open my eyes, my ears and my nose. And just walk in the streets taking in my home country – and the light in the South of France.
