CanadaWhat I'm looking for
At LILT, I deliver Canadian English and Canadian French translation and review for digital and professional content. I adapt materials to Canadian cultural and linguistic norms and conduct linguistic QA and final proofreading.
Previously, I translated and localized content for Melville House Publishing and worked as a Senior Translator at Lingua Nexus Translations GmbH, where I reviewed translations and managed terminology databases focused on Canadian variants. I also create Canadian French SRT subtitles, and bring experience in proofreading, style guide compliance, and localization for Canadian audiences.
