I am a UK-based translator, proofreader and bilingual editor working from French and Georgian into English.
I studied at the Universities of Oxford, Chicago and Birmingham, and I have a frankly insatiable appetite for ongoing learning.
I have a particular interest in women’s writing, neurodiversity, religion in society, and literature from marginalised communities.
