What I offer
I am a freelance English-Hungarian and French-Hungarian translator and editor, a qualified member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting. I provide translation, revision, proofreading services mainly for business, legal and financial documents, and quite often a combination of these. I can also help with your marketing and transcreation projects.
What does this mean in practice?
-
Business and financial translations by a qualified economist with an MSc in International Relations and Economics.
-
I can assist you with a variety of legal documents, drawing on years of professional experience in the foreign service and holding a Diploma in Public Service Interpreting ( English Law pathway).
-
In fact, I am at my best where these fields overlap, such as translating documents for European Union institutions.
-
A published literary translator, I am also involved in transcreation and marketing translation, helping clients to communicate with impact.
A final note:
I am actively looking to work with people and businesses that are offering sustainable solutions or developing ideas on how to achieve a more circular economy. If you are, or know someone else who might be interested, do get in touch, I'd love to get involved and assist with your Hungarian translation needs.

ABOUT ME
I started professional translation after a career in multilateral diplomacy where my linguistic abilities in both English and French were honed in the context of various international organisations. I have a professional track record in a range of subject matters with an economic or legal angle, such as human rights, humanitarian, migration and labour issues, and international development. I am also passionate about the environment and want to contribute as best as I can to secure a sustainable future for the planet.
My strengths reflect this operational background: an ability to quickly grasp the big picture; to adapt to the individual requirements of my clients and their individual projects; and to find the right tone of voice for your message through different cultural settings.
As a result, I'm uniquely positioned to handle the most challenging of texts in my fields of expertise.
From a misleading adjective to a misplaced comma, I know what to look out for to provide consistently high-quality translations.
