Émilie Gariepy

An experienced translator, proofreader and copy editor possessing native-level proficiency in Canadian English and French, I am a self-starter who brings to bear superior language and research skills, critical thinking and continuous learning, exceptional attention to detail, as well as a solid work ethic to every project. In addition to this, I possess a working knowledge of translation practices and standards, a profound understanding of French-Canadian cultural and linguistic contexts, as a native of Québec, and an ability to adapt various types of texts to a uniquely Canadian market.

Ma mission: améliorer la communication et promouvoir le bilinguisme au Canada par l'intermédiaire de textes bien traduits.

Five years of full-time French translation, copy editing and proofreading experience, more than six years of cumulative part-time translation experience, and over a decade of professional experience in bilingual customer service and sales.
