About Me
I have 20 years of experience in the translation industry. I graduated from Rennes 2 University in France, where translation engineering was already recognized as the future of the profession.
My career began at Blue South, a New Zealand-based translation agency. As a Project Manager specializing in translation technologies and engineering, I played a key role in implementing ISO9001 certification and driving business growth. Blue South even made it onto the Deloitte/Unlimited Fast50 list of New Zealand’s fastest-growing technology companies in 2005 and 2007.
Later, I joined a French translation agency in Paris. There, I managed highly technical projects and provided technical support to both customers and suppliers.
Twelve years ago, I became a Senior Project Manager and technical expert at Caupenne & Co., a renowned French translation company. I helped implement ISO9001 and ISO17100 certifications, and eventually took on the role of head of project management and production. Now, I oversee 9 project managers and 4 translators, also serving as the general quality manager. My responsibilities include process improvement, strategic development, and contributing to the training and skills development of my team.
I am not willing to travel to give talks.
