Bio
After graduating with a Master degree in Earth and Environmental Sciences, I worked for three years as an engineer conducting technical studies for a soil engineering firm and a crops agricultural cooperative, before joining the technological subsidiary of a global leader in water services.

I worked in this company for 6 years, within the Corporate Communication Team, providing support to the business units located abroad. I specialised in technical writing, taking responsibility for over thirty bilingual editorial projects (writing in French, and translation/editing in English) in various fields such as:

- drinking water production, process water treatment,
- desalination,
- wastewater or industrial effluents treatment,
- evapoconcentration, “zero liquid discharge” concept,
- sludge treatment and biosolids,
- odour control,
- water/carbon footprint assessment,
- recycling and reuse,
- sustainable development…

My professional background has allowed me to develop a multifaceted approach to environmental issues while, at the same time, focusing on technical topics. It has also allowed me to develop different writing styles targeting specific audiences, as found in the following document types:

- study reports: environmental impact assessments for rural land use planning, sewer system master plans, technical records for Classified Facilities for Protecting the Environment (ICPE in French),
- process notes in water treatment,
- corporate/sales brochures,
- web sites,
- case studies,
- User Requirement Specifications (for a search engine dedicated to online diagnosis of plant pests/diseases and crop protection agent)
- press releases,
- advertisements…

Becoming a freelancer confirms my commitment to writing and I would be delighted to contribute to the success of your communication strategy by applying my technical, language and French drafting skills to your publications.
