Bio

Hello,

I am a British citizen resident in France for many years having spent most of my life in senior media management including the BBC in London and, since retirement, in France translating from French to English and teaching both languages. I have a Masters degree in English from Oxford University (Wadham college). 

My French/English translation experience includes contracts, company year end accounts, subtitling for most of the major French TV stations (Arte, France 3, Canal), large websites (eg. Pure Montagne), marketing presentations and tourist publications and museum exhibitions. Living in the SW,I am very conscious of the wonderful culinary traditions of France and regularly translate, menus and publicity material for food and wine producers.  

Following the death of my wife at the end of 2016, I stopped translation work and moved region. However, I have recently restarted (2019) and been happy to rediscover my old clients and meet new ones.  

Let's work together!

Ben
