Overview
I have been a literary translator since 2013. I translate from English and Spanish into French. I specialise in historical novels, romance and thrillers, but I'm open to other genres. I hold a Master's degree in Literary Translation, as well as a Bachelor's degree in Spanish and a 2-year undergraduate degree in English.
As a literary translator, I've got extensive experience in romance translation (especially historical romance), as well as significant experience with thrillers/noir genre and children's books. I also occasionally work on other genres. As a technical translator, I also have a lot of experience with business and marketing material, as well as with subtitling for TV series. I also happen to teach translation courses at the University of Angers, France.
I have worked with self-published authors in the past and would be happy to provide references. When translating a book, I try to translate the author's style and vision into French, while keeping in mind that the target audience is the French reader.
