- Millions. Of. Words. That’s what I’ve translated so far and what now makes me feel accomplished and committed to getting your message across. But don’t just take my word for it.
- I’ve studied my languages so intensively that I’m now bilingual in Spanish and English and virtually native in French (DALF C2 EU level).
- I’m determination and curiosity-fuelled, and I never give up on a word or phrase until I find the perfect way to translate it into Italian. Have you got a translation challenge for me?
- Benefit from 15+ years of wide-ranging corporate experience. With this know-how, I am able and honoured to contribute to the growth of your company and to your personal success.
- Draw on my deep understanding of the countries, the cultures and the languages I know (French on top).
I’m energetic, straight-to-the-point and ironic, but I take your ambitions very seriously.
Things I am proud of:
- BA in Foreign Languages from the University of Rome (Italy)
- Master’s degree in Translation from the University of Lille (France)
- Member of the French Translators’ Association (SFT)
- Member of the Italian Translators and Interpreters’ Association (AITI)
- Teaching “Translation Project Management” at the University of Lille (France) – Master course
- DALF C2 certificate in French (highest level of language)
- Certificate of attendance for Copy 42 WEB and Copy 42 ADV—courses on professional copywriting delivered by professional copywriters
- Helping worthy causes: pro-bono translations for Translators4Children
- Pro-bono Translations for Progetto Melting Pot Europa
- Pro-bono Translations for Edizioni SUR
- Pro-bono Translations for MAMI
What all of this means:
I understand your goals, your message, I know what will and won’t work in Italy and how to create texts that grab your audience’s attention. This insight is what you need to make a real connection with your target market.
You invest time, effort and money in your company’s image.
It’s in safe hands with me.

More about me
Did you know?
- I’m an avid reader. I’ve read everything I can get my hands on since I was tiny – even labels!
- I am the happy mum of 2 bilingual twins (and test my teaching skills on them 😉 ).
- I love all forms of art (particularly Gaudí and Renoir) and I love to travel (I always joke that I only work so that I can travel!).
- I used to be a professional volleyball player when I was young…er. That’s how I learnt that team play is paramount to hit a common target.
Looking for professionalism with personality? Sounds like we’re the perfect match.
