Ylenia Marcucci Faure

I am an Italian-French translator and interpreter, fully bilingual in Italian and French, fluent in English and with a good working knowledge of German.

With an honours degree in Conference Interpreting and Specialised Translation, I studied at the following prestigious universities:
• MA in Conference Interpreting – Department of Interpretation and Translation (DIT) in Forlì - University of Bologna (Italy);
• Course in Conference Interpreting – Faculty of Translation and Interpreting (FTI) - University of Geneva (Switzerland);
• Course in Conference Interpreting – Institute of Translation and Interpreting - University of Westminster (London, UK);
• BA in Translation and Liaison Interpreting – Department of Interpretation and Translation (DIT) in Forlì - University of Bologna (Italy).

I regularly follow highly specialised CPD courses to further improve my skills in my fields of specialisation and in new sectors. Over the years, I have successfully completed a number of courses, including:
• Higher Education Course in Medical Interpreting - Medical Interpreting Academy - Stefania Crisari (passed with distinction);
• Course in English Phonetics – SCEP - University College London (UK);
• Course on Financial Translation held by Davide De Leo;
• University Diploma for Legal Translators – University of Nice - Sophia-Antipolis (France);
• Diploma in Business French – Paris Chamber of Commerce (France) (passed with distinction).

For academic and professional reasons, I lived abroad for more than ten years, thus having the opportunity to significantly improve the language skills I had already acquired during my university studies.
For 20 years, I have been working as a translator, interpreter, and language coach for established companies, agencies, foundations and consulting firms both in Italy and abroad. The most prestigious assignments included participation in several major UNESCO projects.
