Bio
I am a native Italian speaker. I also speak and write fluent English. My translation pair is English to Italian.

I specialize in parenting/psychology, education/pedagogy; linguistics; language teaching and learning; literature; social sciences.

My work is founded on my passion for linguists as well as on my commitment to always work at the best of my abilities.

In January 2023 I sat the CIOL Diploma in Translation (Dip Trans) exam. Results will be announced by the end of April.

My most recent job has been translating "The Parenting Toolkit" by Caroline Penney. This has been my first big book project and I am truly looking forward to seeing it finally published. 

In 2017 I was commissioned by Hodder Education, a Hachette UK Company to become part of the author team of the Cambridge IGCSE Italian book which was subsequently published in 2019.

I obtained my Honours Degree 2:1 in Foreign Languages and Literatures in 2007.
I completed a PGCE in Modern Languages at Bath Spa University in 2015, which included two school placements and three assignments at Masters level. This enhanced both my knowledge of the education sector and my writing and research skills. 

In 2011, I was commissioned by the Italian artist Alberto Cottignoli to translate an article which was subsequently published. The piece is called "National Gallery Madonna of the Pinks" and it was published by the cultural association "Jacopo Landoni", with the collaboration of Artwatch International, Columbia University, New York.

I have also undertaken translations on a voluntary basis for a religious website called "Gospel Translation". 

In addition to my translation commitments, I worked part time as a secondary school teacher of Italian, Spanish and French in the UK, where I have lived since 2009. Teaching has highly improved my organisational skills and ability to meet very tight deadlines.

As well as fluency in both Italian and English, I have an in depth knowledge of the culture and lifestyles of both countries.

I offer my clients high standards of accuracy and professionalism.
