Work with Beth Smith!

ATA-certified French to English translator specializing in advertising and marketing, entertainment, and literary translation

Helping businesses and authors sound great in English.

You need an experienced translator, someone who is not only able to put your words into English, but who can also use their skills in transcreation and copywriting to get your ideas across in the best possible way for an English-speaking audience. If you’re looking for someone who works in advertising and marketing, cosmetics, luxury goods, or entertainment, I’m that person.

If you’re an author looking for a translator for your novel, short stories, or even a non-fiction work, I’m here for you. I have worked with several self-published authors, translating two novels, a collection of short stories, a book about happiness and finance, and an e-book about solo travel. I’d be happy to translate your project as well. Let’s talk about it! (Note: I sometimes give a price break on literary translation. Ask me!)
