KAREN HENRY

QUALIFIED FRENCH TO ENGLISH TRANSLATOR


Thirty years living and working in France, along with my more recent experience as a local councillor, has allowed me to gain an in-depth understanding of the French language and mindset. As a qualified member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting, I am committed to the highest professional standards.

“As a translation project manager, I had the pleasure of working with Karen for nearly a year. Karen was meticulous and responsive, delivering high-quality, French to English translations (mostly marketing, business communication and wine content). A true gem for a project manager!” Loïc Le Saux
