Globalisation is here to stay. This means that our work as translators and interpreters has become more important than ever before. As a translator and interpreter with over 20 years of experience, I am fully aware of how essential my work is.

Of course, the above applies to all translations, but most particularly to the translation of medical texts and legal contracts, with which I have a lot of experience. If mistakes are made in these texts, this can have quite serious consequences.  

I am very conscious of the fact that my clients depend on me. In the words of Henry David Thoreau:

“I'm true to my work, my words and my clients”
