Freelance Patent Translator

About

One day I read the biography of Marie Curie. I discovered later chemistry, literature and languages at high school. During all my professional career I have been trying to combine my two passions, languages and science. I have worked in chemical analysis, translation and IP, particularly in patents. In my role as a chemical patent consultant, I achieved an in-depth experience of reading, drafting and translating scientific texts, particularly those of patent documents, where accuracy and consistency are so important. Working as a patent translator allows me to develop my linguistic skills everyday looking for the most accurate terminology. And I always learn something new on a high diversity of scientific and technical fields. It is all about innovation!
