Peter S.

(he/They)

Born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. I went to college in Montréal and Paris to study French, German, and Spanish translation. I also work as a freelance translator, subtitler, and interpreter. I am very passionate about film and have a comedy production company. In my spare time I love to do acrobatics (trampoline, pole, and dance). I volunteer for translators without borders. 

In high school I wanted to be a veterinarian. My best friend’s dad had a practice and we worked there on the weekends and during summer. I went from a bather to a technician and learned a lot about the practice, including how to give all types of shots/fluids, clip nails, and aftercare for surgery. 

Growing up I was always surrounded by animals, and though I currently don’t have a pet of my own, I’ve been a cat uncle to my roommates’ cats for the past 4 years. I love cats instinctively and they tend to know immediately—I guess I’m just a natural born cat person!
