Carla Lavaste – Translator

French national with twelve years of life experience in the USA. Professional literary translator from English to French since 2013.

Overview

I am passionate about writing, translating and literature in general. The twelve years that I have spent in the United States have given me a very good knowledge of American culture and an excellent command of the English language. Needless to say, I know French, my mother tongue, inside and out.


I am meticulous and always respectful of my clients’ deadlines. I am also a curious mind, always happy to learn about new subject matters.
