As a professional writer and enthusiastic researcher, I am happy to write articles, reviews, announcements, and anything else you may need to enhance your online (or offline) presence on any given topic. 500-2,000 words, or more. (Price is per piece, not per hour, so if your requirements are for very long articles, etc. we can arrange something fair to us both) You need only to contact me with your requirements, and I will be glad to help.
My own interests include Japanese, Chinese, Indian, Italian and British life, culture and history (including language and travel), natural health, wellbeing and self-help, Zen Buddhism, world religions, martial arts, gardening, cooking (I am an accomplished chef in many different cuisines), swimming, running and cycling, nutritional chemistry, painting and pottery, books, science (including physics, medicine, computers, biology and mathematics), finance and economics, photovoltaics, organic farming, animals and animal husbandry (I had my own successful organically-managed smallholding in the UK for 16 years), game development, anime and manga, Carnatic and other traditional and modern music, art and crafts ... and many other things. I currently enjoy a quiet life in Sicily, where I live with my partner, dog and cat, though life has placed me in many other interesting locations before now (India, Japan, China, the US...). No matter where I find myself, I always seem to wind up teaching English, art, and swimming, although in my own time these days I concentrate chiefly on my writing, painting, pottery, gardening and swimming. I have one published book (fiction), with plans for several more. I always give my all, will do my best to work hard for you, and look forward to being of service!

Greetings from beautiful Sicily! Born in the US, I have spent most of my adult life in the UK, reading and studying, and growing organic vegetables and rearing livestock, before moving to Italy 4 years ago. I have lived on four continents, and have worked as a chef, a computer systems administrator, a tutor in a variety of subjects (and a variety of languages), and a swimming teacher (in English, Chinese and Italian), among other things. I never shy away from trying new things, especially if they seem intriguing or challenging. In fact, the more challenging, the better! I have one published book (so far!), and am currently working on a second — an Italian-language learning book for English speakers (the book I wished I had when I started learning Italian, complete with manga-style drawings).

My love of language and communication and my extremely varied life experience give me a passion for enabling a large variety of projects and ideas to be shared across the globe, and across cultures. I have a strong work ethic, and will always do my very best to convey your ideas as perfectly and as sensitively as possible. One of the things I like best about translation is the feeling that I am doing something to foster understanding and cooperation between people, and to make the world a happier, and hopefully more tolerant, place!

In my spare time, I enjoy swimming, pottery-making, painting and drawing, writing, cooking, practicing martial arts, and watching movies and anime. I also enjoy relaxing with my boyfriend, dog, and cat, and entertaining friends.
