About

Most European companies have localization covered. What they rarely have is a native English speaker who has spent nearly 10 years inside European tech, building the content standards, quality systems, terminology infrastructure, and content operations their English runs on.

At BlaBlaCar, I led in-context linguistic quality assurance across up to 19 locales, governed terminology so validated changes held everywhere, and built the systems underneath: a change-detection layer that stops silent overwriting, cross-functional content-delivery workflows, and frameworks that other teams adopted. At FizzUp, I was the sole English specialist for almost five years: every English content standard there started with me, alongside 310,000+ words translated from French to English and published on a live multilingual site. My strength is on the source and process side: catching the terminology drift, locale slips, and non-native phrasing that multiply across markets, then putting systems in place to stop them.

Since October 2025, I have taken a deliberate break, using it to decide on and prepare for a move to Switzerland: German study at the Goethe-Institut toward the Goethe-Zertifikat B2, and coursework in AI and international SEO.
