Hi there! I'm Mathilde, born in France, currently soaking up the sun (and humidity) in Singapore ☀️🌴 My love affair with languages began in primary school, when my English teacher taught me how to say my favorite color. The day I confidently said "pink" in English? Pure joy, and the start of something big. Not long after, I picked up German, and by high school I was diving into Mandarin, dreaming of standing atop the Great Wall of China. I've always been fascinated by Chinese characters. My favorite is 家 (jiā, meaning "family") because it literally shows a pig under a roof. How hilarious is that? 🤭 Since then, I've dabbled in Spanish, Indonesian, Japanese and, let's be honest, way too many more to list here, all while feeding my obsession with language history, international communication and project management. In 2018, fresh out of my Master's in Translation and Project Management, I launched my own translation business, and soon after jumped headfirst into localization. These days, I manage the localization of websites and apps across multiple languages, and take special pride in tailoring content for the French market, making sure global content doesn't just make sense, but truly shines ✨ With years of hands-on experience (think: Apple, Tinder, Brave), I've honed a sharp eye for detail and a strong sense of voice, key ingredients for delivering localized copy that's accurate, natural and engaging. Outside of work, I'm a yoga enthusiast, a certified scuba diver and a full-time adventurer. But what truly defines me? I'd say it's my transparency, responsiveness and genuine love for connection. Whether you want to chat about language or localization, swap travel stories, or just say hi, drop me a message! 💌
