Bio
>Your translation should ring as true as if written by a native writer: a translator is a writer.

You expect your ideas to be transmitted as faithfully and as effectively in the target language as you have prepared the content in yours. So your translator should be an accomplished writer in their native language.

I hold a BA (Hons) in Literature (Open, UK) and a postgraduate BA (Hons) in Comparative Literatures (Auckland, NZ), both awarded first class Honours. I currently have three books published. Writing is my passion.

My strengths include a clear communicative style and careful attention to detail – a concern for saying it right. I offer translations in:

- Academic & cultural: qualifications, diplomas, CVs, medical certificates, police clearance certificates, etc.
- Architecture
- Aviation
- Biology
- Commercial & advertising: websites, brochures
- Cuisine
- Finance & economics
- Government: parliamentary websites, speeches
- IT & technical: user manuals, documentation
- Legal & professional: contracts, affidavits, expert's reports, patents
- Literature
- Theatre, film and television: scripts, CVs, production projects

A professional translator since 1995, I translate from Catalan-Valencian and Spanish into English while editing and project-managing other language combinations. I can source translators for most European languages, ensuring a fast, professional turnaround and content that reads as if written by a native speaker. Contact me to translate academic theses, literary works, business documents, contracts, press releases, website content and much more.

In 2011, I launched the publishing initiative Poble Sec Books, which offers editorial services to authors and businesses. Poble Sec Books can write, copy-edit and proofread content for your website, brochure, catalogue, manual, online or print publication. I will ensure your message is clear, engaging and free of grammatical or spelling errors. If you have a rough draft of what you want to say, I can rewrite it in the best format possible – or else, based on your brief, create fresh content to promote your business.

I offer quality, attention to detail and prompt turnaround times.
