Bio

A specialist French/Spanish to English translator and Chartered
Linguist, I help businesses, NGOs and academics scale their impact through
creative human translation, providing targeted, publication-ready texts in
business and marketing, urbanism and real estate, sustainability and social
science.



For the
last eight years I have been practising as Tinta Viva Translation, based in
Oxfordshire in the UK. In Spanish, Tinta Viva means ‘living ink’. I think of
translation as giving ideas and information a new life in a different language
and culture, helping them feel right at home. Ultimately,
I’m here to help organisations and individuals create a more beautiful,
sustainable and liveable world, by taking their words global, connecting with
new audiences and optimising their results.



In addition to the Diploma in Translation (DipTrans) in both of my
language pairs, I hold a BA (Hons) in Geography from the University of
Cambridge, an MPhil in Environment, Society and Development and an MSc in City
Planning and Regeneration. I am a qualified member of both the Chartered
Institute of Linguists (CIoL) and the Institute of Translation and Interpreting
(ITI) and a member of Mediterranean Editors and Translators (MET).  Before entering the world of translation, I
worked as a fundraiser for the University of Oxford and a social researcher.

You can find out more about me and my work at

If you think we might be a good fit, I’d be delighted to hear from
you.
