Summary

Do you need someone to take the management of translation projects off your hands?

Would you like to streamline your translation processes but you are not sure how?

Would you like to work directly with translators and need an expert to setup your processes?

If the answer to one or more of these questions is yes, I am here to help.

I bring six years of experience in the localization industry where I worked for both Language Service Providers and localization buyers.

I am passionate about languages and I have successfully delivered localization projects with a turnaround of up to 900.000 € p/a.
