Mélissa Martinez

Hi there!

I'm Mélissa, an English-French translator with 6+ years of professional experience across subtitling, literary translation, tourism, and marketing. With a Master's in Translation and a Bachelor's in Tourism, my academic background is matched by hands-on experience: years of travel have given me practical insights into different cultures, and background knowledge in agricultural sciences broadens the range of subjects I work across comfortably.

My subtitling credits include 15+ productions on Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Rakuten TV, Paramount, and Crunchyroll, including SDH/CC subtitling for deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences.

On the literary side, I've worked on travel literature, children's books, and editorial articles covering culture, anthropology, and reportage.

My Bachelor's in Tourism feeds directly into my marketing and transcreation work: from SEO-optimized web content to travel product descriptions with measurable results, including ranking a hotel website in 2nd position on search engines.

I also cover technical, legal, and UI/UX localization, with hands-on experience in tools like Trados, MemoQ, SubtitleEdit, and Aegisub.

I work at 5,000–8,000 words/day or 20-25 video min/day

Need precise, culturally-sensitive translations for your French market? Let me know how I can assist.
