About Tessa

Freelance translator and interpreter for over 15 years, I wish to develop my independent activity and my professional network.

My years of professional employment as a legal translator in a large Parisian law firm and interpreter and translator with the Border Police and the Mobile Immigration Brigade of Roissy have given me a real knowledge and know-how in the public and legal fields, which will certainly give me a definite advantage in meeting the requirements of the private sector.

Graduated in translation with honors from the University Paul Valéry of Montpellier and trained in conference interpreting at ISIT, Paris, I am perfectly capable of applying both the techniques acquired during my training and the experience acquired to the reality of my clients' requests.

My seriousness, my rigor, my precision, my motivation as well as a real oral and written ease in my two working languages (English/French) are all assets allowing me to serenely apprehend the prospect of a future collaboration.
