Bio
Welcome to my freelancer profile. I am a professional translator from France specialized in Science and Engineering, with an expertise in Physics and Optics (PhD, University of Paris 11).
I have been involved in hundreds of projects with over 1.5 million words translated in various fields such as Automation, Energy, Optical measurements, Sensors and Civil Engineering.
I am also qualified for patent translations.

For more information about my services, you are invited to download my CV or visit my LinkedIn profile.

I translate from English into French, from Turkish into French, and for specific fields close to my areas of expertise from Turkish into English (with the help of a native monolingual proofreader if necessary).
I can handle French into Turkish with the help of a native collaborator.
I offer Turkish/French interpretation services on an occasional basis.

For translations from/into Turkish, you can also contact me through our specialized agency:
Toledo Technical.
