Bio

Hello! Bonjour ! I'm Claire, a native English, UK-based linguist with 14 years' freelance experience.

🥐 For French clients, I translate creative marketing (especially food and tourism).

🏈 For US brands (especially sports apparel/footwear, lifestyle tech), I localize communications and eCommerce.

🎓 For researchers writing in English as a second language, I provide language editing and editorial review.

Interested in any of these services? I invite you to read on for more details about my education and experience…

French > English translation: As a qualified translator (MA, University College London) and lifelong Francophile, I translate/transcreate marketing materials into UK English for France's travel and tourism sector, food and gastronomy industry, and lifestyle brands.

US > UK Localization: I have 12 years' experience localizing and consulting on global communications for major US brands (sports apparel/footwear and lifestyle tech). I can advise on cultural and linguistic aspects of international campaigns from a UK perspective, and quality assure eCommerce content destined for the UK market.

Academic editing: Since obtaining my PhD (King's College London, 2016), it has been my great pleasure to edit research reports, journal articles, doctoral theses and funding applications, principally for social researchers based in Norway. I have worked on over 100 publications. As an editor, I am especially experienced in the field of migration studies, and as an academic author myself, in the fields of translation studies and sociology.

If any of these services could help support you or your business, please don't hesitate to get it touch!
