multicultural, multilingual
I come from a Franco-American family with Armenian and Persian heritage, I grew up between the UK and France. I studied English literature in the United States, fashion design and technical translation in France.
I have been working in the fashion and apparel industry for over 30 years. I have completed a full circle odyssey through the world of fashion: design, production, marketing, and corporate responsibility.
My knowledge of fashion and textiles and my linguistic skills combine to produce high-quality translations.
