Avez-vous besoin d'un service de rédaction en anglais ?
Cherchez-vous une conceptrice-rédactrice pigiste anglophone ? Vous êtes au bon endroit.
Je collabore avec des entreprises québécoises qui souhaitent communiquer authentiquement avec un public anglophone à Montréal, dans le reste du Canada, ou aux États-Unis.
En plus d'offrir un service de rédaction et de conception en anglais, je m'occupe de l'adaptation des textes du français vers l'anglais (ce service est aussi connu sous le nom de transcréation).
N'hésitez pas à communiquer avec moi en français !
(hey, that rhymes!)
