I'm based in Chicago and currently working for a non-profit human rights organization. I'm a francophile at heart, which led me to participate in Global Voices Lingua as its first French translator. I've lived and worked in the Democratic Republic of Congo for a humanitarian mission, and also try to visit France as much as I can.

For Global Voices in French, I translate articles from English into French (and vice versa). For Global Voices Japan, I helped proofread and edit articles about the Japanese blogosphere.
