Bio
I began translating as a technical journalist when I was Associate Editor for MacWorld Italia magazine, computer books and pamphlets from English to Italian. My experience also includes tech manuals for electro-medical equipment. Web applications are another area of my technical expertise.


While I started as a technicaI translator some fifteen years ago, I later branched out into translating fiction and essays, especially musicological ones. My passion for the arts, music and literature in particular and my background as a musician and music reviewer, have allowed me to translate many different texts in these fields. As well as translating, I am an experienced editor in both Italian and English and take particular care in making sure the texts I work on are clear and precise, conveying exactly what the author intends.

As a devoted follower of the latest cultural currents in the U.S. in popular and literary books, many different forms of music and the arts scene, I am confident in my ability to convey not just basic meaning, but also the undercurrents, the subtleties of slang and the fast changing direction of American culture.


So far I have translated over 30 books, including literary and popular fiction, essays, reference books, plus a number of technical manuals. All of this is referenced in detail in my CV.
