I am a skilled translator, with more than twenty-five years of experience in the field of technical translation, notably in the areas of aircraft construction, electricity and avionics, law and advertising. My professional skills also include writing, editing, the preparation of text, as well as the process of term extraction and research of terminology (writing of
62 terminological index cards on fiber optics). My clients include engineering and construction firms, and translation firms offering linguistic services in a broad range of fields and specializations.

I am conscientious, persevering, motivated and passionate. I know how to accurately assess the time needed to complete a project entrusted to me and fully invest myself in the realization of any undertaking. I accomplish my tasks with energy, enthusiasm and commitment. Clarity, accuracy and logic, which I believe to be important qualities, are reflected in everything that I do. I wish to continue to put into practice the experience that I have acquired over my long career, especially in the field of translation; a field that continues to be of special interest to me.

Good knowledge of the Microsoft Office Suite, as well as Microsoft Project, Interleaf, QuickSilver, Lotus Notes and Internet Explorer.
