I have been working as a translator since 2018, when I started to attend the Languages and Cultures for Tourism and International Mediation course at the University of Bari. I graduated with the highest grade (110 e lode) and started my specialisation at the University of Turin (a Translation course focusing on literary translation). I work from both English and French and I am fond of literature: novels, poetry, theatre are my highest aims.

I am a full-time freelance translator with a BA in EN-IT translation obtained in 2001 from SSIT School of Milan. I have worked as in-house translator in the architect studio Eliotopia (Milan) for about a year, until I started to focus on my freelance carreer. It still remained one of my main clients throughout the years. I grew up in my family business, an international female, male and children's apparel store, making of fashion one of my specialty fields. After travelling from Ireland to Australia, I have settled in the pitoresque city of Cremona, cradle of ancient traditions and Stradivari violins. Today I mostly work with translations involving a creative style.

From fashion to localization of videogames, websites, apps and softwares. Some of my clients include alibaba.com, pawshake.com, apposta.com, yoox.com, fx interactive, and the humongous gaming sites poki.com and minigiochi.it - for whom I have also served as SEO copywriter.

I am a bilingual Italian English freelance translator with over 20 years experience in translations in the following fields: instruction books, manuals, industrial equipment, finance, law, fashion, footwear and apparel detailing, software, tanning industry, electronics, tourism, food (fresh produce), automotive, marketing, business, international trade, bank, civil engineering, tenders, contracts, subcontracts, consulting. I was born in the USA from Italian parents, and lived there up to age 13, thus growing up in a bilingual family and school environment. I achieved my degree as an English and French translator in 2000, and have been working since then as a translator, both freelance and in-house, in the following language pairs: ENG > IT, IT>EN, FR>IT.

I worked for 7 years for an engineering and consulting firm, translating all sorts of documents, administrative, technical, project-related, business and legal. I currently work as a freelance translator.

My mother tongue is Italian and I have lived for over 9 years in the United States and for 5 of these years I worked as a full-time in-house translator from English to Italian. In this period I honed my translator and CAT user skills to a very high level. I also have several years of experience as project manager, having run translation projects for over a dozen of languages for almost 3 years.

Since 2007 I am a Freelance translator with hundreds upon hundreds of jobs completed and over 2 millions of words translated for a total of 15 years of experience in the field.
