ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE
For the past 6 1/2 years, my formal title has been General Counsel, as I head up the Legal Department of my company. However, I am also the sole French speaker in the company, so in addition to maintaining all contracts in English it has also been my duty to translate and update our contracts in Spanish and French. I also perform ad review in all three languages (and would in Portuguese and German, as well, if my company required the service).
For the six years prior to that I worked as a contract attorney on various international projects, reviewing and translating documents from German, Spanish, Portuguese and French into English as needed.
I have also done some freelance work as a translator on my own, and for the Swiss legal translation agency LT Lawtank.
