From preschool until the end of high school, I attended the International French School in San Francisco, from which I received a baccalaureate degree. I have grown very fond of my two native tongues, and have developed a love of words and their appropriate use. Living between two continents, it is imperative that I maintain my fluency, and this is primarily why I have decided to become a translator; as this will surely permit the perpetual perfection of my proficiency. During the summer of 2006, I spent 9 weeks interning in the Neurology, Neuropsychiatry and Neurosurgery departments at the University Hospital in Geneva, Switzerland, allowing me to further bilingual knowledge of scientific and medical terminology. > Education: B.A. French Language & Literature, University of California, Berkeley, June 2007 Emphasis: cognitive neuroscience > Additional Skills: I am very proficient with computers, both PC and Mac, and can use Excel, Word, Outlook, Entourage, and PowerPoint and a myriad of other computer programs... I work well independently and in groups. I am detail-oriented and committed to excellence. I can work remotely or on-site, and am able to travel as frequently as necessary. I am well traveled and very knowledgeable in many aspects of French culture. > Location: San Francisco - Geneva - Shanghai (United States) |
