Overview
I have been a literary (and non-literary) translator since 2013, working from English and Spanish into French. I specialise in thrillers, romance (with a focus on historical romance) and children's books. I hold a Master's degree in Literary Translation, a Bachelor's in Spanish and a two-year undergraduate degree in English.
As a literary translator, I’ve worked extensively on romance and thrillers, and also have considerable experience with children's literature. I occasionally work on other genres too. My goal is to help authors break into (or expand their presence in) the French-speaking market by crafting faithful and engaging French versions of their work that resonate with French readers as powerfully as they do in the original.
On the non-literary side, I regularly translate business, marketing, and tourism content, along with subtitling and video game localisation. I also teach translation courses and tutor translation Master's students on their theses at the University of Angers, France.
I have collaborated with both self-published authors and traditional publishing houses, and I would be happy to provide references. When translating a book, I aim to carry the author’s voice and vision into French, while keeping the target audience in mind.
