English to French Translator/Editor

I believe that, in business, a great story can change everything. I was born and raised in Lyon, France and French is my mother tongue. As a native speaker, I can control and adapt the nuances of tone, structure, and rhythm to any project, whether the needs are formal or casual. After graduating from the IDRAC Business School in 2012 with a Master’s in Business Administration, Marketing & Management, I joined the business development pole of a prominent local sporting goods distribution company. In conjunction with my sales missions, I created, edited, and translated product sheets for the company’s website. I also provided professional level English-to-French and French-to-English translations in order to improve communications with our foreign clients. In 2016, I started working as a freelance translator (English to French) collaborating, translating and writing online website content (profiles, blog posts, newsletters, sale sheets, FAQs, product descriptions) for a bilingual startup based in Lyon. I developed the communications scheme by generating original French content, cultivating online customer relations, building the brand together with my American collaborator and, on the business side: drafting a coherent commercial strategy. While I am not currently writing, or translating under contract, I work to cultivate my spheres of interests, which can be narrowed down to sports, travel, international business, English and French reading, music, and media.
