I offer a variety of services all related to English, my mother tongue, and to my various artistic activities, especially poetry, solo performance, and documentary film-making (nancyduplessis.com). I recently returned to indexing, which I did years ago in New York. I accept post-editing but require the source text and the understanding that machine translations/AI can at most save 25% of the time needed to work from scratch.

My trilingual business website is everything-in-english.com  (English/German/French)

My fields of specialization for translating and editing/post-editing include international relations, environment/sustainability, social sciences and urban design/city planning, particularly in the MENA Region, Africa, Europe, and the Americas. I also work in all the arts, on websites and online general-interest journals, subtitle films and make voice recordings. I work intensively with my clients, and am always interested in a new challenge. I coach individuals and groups in person and online in alll aspects of making presentations. My compact workshop focusing on voice and speech production was enthusiastically received at METM23. 

I've studied many different subjects and languages in degree programs, continuing education, and informally. A native US-English speaker, I have lived most of my life in Europe, where I work mostly with UK English.

I'm a housing activist and occasionally publish on initiatives I'm involved with and put the links on my website: https://nancyduplessis.com/whats-new/whats-on-my-mind/

A few other articles – on the French Algerian novelist Leila Sebbar and The Nation weekly – are also on that website. Links to relevant opinion pieces are at everything-in-english.com.
