Bio

For when you can't afford a "cheap" translation

Swedish, French, Danish and Norwegian to UK English translations and language services


Background

A talented linguist with a business background spanning several sectors and three countries, I approach every assignment, whatever the scale or subject, with the same professional but approachable attitude.


Subject matter

My particular specialised subject areas are archaeology, museums and literary translation.

In recent years I've moved increasingly into the fields English consultancy for corporate clients who simply can't afford the reputational damage that "cheap" translations entail.


What can I do for you?

I work for individuals, institutions and corporate clients at all levels. My clients call on me when "good enough" isn't good enough, when the English text has to be every bit as effective, stylish and culturally appropriate as the original.
