Need a French text in English you can rely on?
A free 20-minute consultation — no obligation, just a conversation about what you need.
30+ years' experience in translation, television reporting, government communications, and corporate PR.
Technical datasheet, campaign or press release: each service draws on the same rare mix — a journalist's eye and a translator's precision.
French → English and Irish → English, by a native English speaker with an MA in Translation Studies (Distinction). Technical and industrial, marketing, corporate, tourism, public sector: for the documents where "close enough" isn't good enough.
Where translation reaches its limit. For advertising, slogans and brand content, I use your source material to reshape your message for a new audience — adapting the references and cultural cues, cutting irrelevant content and adding the new, essential references that make sure your target audience understands what matters.
Written, or rewritten, until they're publication-ready: the newsworthy angle found, the jargon stripped, quotes a journalist can use. Your team handles publication; I make sure that what lands in the editor's inbox gets read.
Most translators translate what you wrote. For campaigns and press releases, I also help you decide what should be written to get attention.
Speeches, crises, national launches — senior government communications, under real pressure.
Native English, fluent French, and Irish as a former working language — I know anglophone and francophone culture from the inside, so your message crosses the divide intact.
