Welcome…

2C-Communications is a one-stop-shop for your translation, transcreation, editing, and copywriting needs. 

Working from French, Spanish, and Italian into English, I’m here to help you deliver content that reflects you, your products and services, and your uniqueness in a way that resonates with your audience. 

In a nutshell, I’m here to help you:

• Translate your written communications into English, providing an accurate, contextually well-rounded result;

• Transcreate your written communications for maximum clarity, and

• Transform your communications for the greatest impact.  

In-House Experience

My in-country experience in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and New Zealand has given me valuable personal insight and professional experience working with multinational audiences.

Simply put, automated translation is rarely able to capture the full nuances in a language - hence the importance of a professional translator.

Many everyday words can have a multitude of meanings. In English for example, the word “set”, has over 400 meanings... The words ‘run’, ‘stand’, ‘strike’, and ‘turn’ have at least 200 meanings - each.

This is where a skilled translator becomes your communications partner.

The highest language standards

Having lived and worked in Europe, Africa, the Middle East and New Zealand, I use my professional experience and cultural understanding to bring you well-crafted translations using the highest language standards while adhering to your specific corporate language and style.

Broaden your reach

By translating your marketing and communications material, you are showing your clients or potential clients that you respect their cultural and linguistic backgrounds and are thus reaching a broader audience.

I’m here to help you with your editing needs, including:

• Proofreading: Checking texts for misspellings or typos, incorrect grammar, punctuation or disagreements in subject-verb usage.

• Copy-Editing: This includes the proofreading mentioned above, but also checks style, consistency and formatting. Copy-editing also includes suggested changes to enhance meaning, clarity, or flow.

• Substantive Editing: Going beyond proofreading and editing, a substantive edit helps you ‘tighten up’ your text by eliminating unnecessary wordiness, jargon, or repetition, helping you achieve a polished, clear text with consistent messaging and tone.

For you, it’s about securing client, staff, and brand loyalty. It’s about making your marketing and communications material one of your many differentiating factors.

This is where I can help. I’m committed to the highest standards, and work with a number of different types of written communications, including:

• Advertising

• Client reporting and communications

• Internal communications (HR, newsletters, announcements, reports, etc.)

• Presentations (internal and external) and Pitches

• Social Media

• Speeches

• Website content (inter- and intranet)

For me, it’s about helping you produce clear, comprehensible, and concise communications that are true to your voice, values, and vision.

With close to 20 years’ experience in writing, translation, transcreation, and editing marketing and communications material in the financial services and wealth management arena, I understand that your current and potential clients expect nothing but the very best from you – including in your communications with them.

A wealth of experience at your service…

Mother-tongue English and fluent in French, Spanish and Italian, my experience as translator and as copywriter/editor is an invaluable asset in your desire to create sharp, solid, and well-crafted publications.
