Localization Leader Building Global Gaming Experiences
With 20 years of experience, I craft strategy, build and scale localization operations, and create high-performing teams to enhance player experience worldwide.
About Me
I am a video game localization consultant and trainer, helping my clients build high-quality localization programs that enhance the gaming experience for players around the world.
Background
My extensive experience in localization includes working as a freelance translator, in-house linguist, project manager, translation tool support engineer and technical trainer for various leading language service providers.
Previously, as the Head of Localisation at Frontier Developments, I lead the team responsible for defining the narrative and localization strategy, pipelines and execution across all games, marketing and studio activity to deliver and support all products globally.
Consulting and Training
With a solid background in localization, business and technology, I am part of Nimdzi Insight's team of experts.
I am an instructor at Localization Academy, developing and delivering a comprehensive, practical course on game localization.
Volunteering
As a volunteer, I am the Global Manager for the Mentorship Program at Women in Localization, bringing career-changing experiences to hundreds of professionals world-wide.
Let's Work Together!
I help two kinds of people build localization that actually works.
One-Person Localization Teams
You want to expand into new markets the right way, but you're not ready to hire a full-time localization lead.
Getting this right means more than "translate the website".
I help you design that strategy and lay foundations that scale, so international growth doesn't become a bottleneck.
Start-ups & Scale-ups Going Global
Being the whole department is a lot. You're expected to be fluent in technology, business strategy, languages, culture, project management, and people management.
You're also expected to keep improving the process while running the day-to-day. There's rarely time to think strategically.
I bring the outside perspective and hands-on support for exactly those moments: the strategic initiatives you don't have bandwidth to tackle solo.
