My biography and experience

I have been translating professionally since 2007. My experience includes working for a Fortune 50 company advertising division in the United States, a small medical publishing office in France, and for the United Nations at a major genocide and war crimes tribunal in Cambodia. 

I am currently working as a freelance interpreter and translator in Washington, DC. I work at a high level and have been vetted by the US Department of State, Inter-American Development Bank, and Organization of American States internal translation exams. I regularly provide language services for these entities, as well as the UN system, the International Monetary Fund, and TV5 Monde. 

In addition to working as a translator and interpreter, I provide treaty/contract comparison, subtitling, transcription, and legal document reading services.
