Hi, my name is Michele!

It’s really nice to meet you.

I’m a technical translator for French, German, and Italian with three decades of experience. In addition, I’m the founder and CEO of iXtran.net , a creative agency for multilingual communication that helps brands, business, and humans elevate their visibility and impact.

Translations and terminologies are at my core, but I’m also passionate about visual design, visual communication, and web development.

Working with programming languages for the web or exploring related subjects and technologies (CSS frameworks, website usability, web accessibility, color theories, typography, and so on) is amazing, creative, and almost always fun.

Coding is quite more than just “writing software”. It also implies how to enhance the synergy of aesthetics and functionality when, for example, it comes to the interaction/communication between user and website or web application.

As a translator I believe in the power of language. Whether it be a natural language or a formal language, it is essential to the communication and its effectiveness.

Here’s a non-exhaustive list of fields of activity and tools I love to use daily:

Web Applications (2022–present):

  • HTML, CSS, JS (the heart of web development)
  • Node.js (runtime environment)
  • Static site generators (SSGs)
  • Tailwind CSS (utility-first CSS framework)
  • GSAP, ScrollMagic (animation frameworks)
  • WordPress (CMS)

Email Design (2022–present):

  • Maizzle (framework for HTML email development—powered by Tailwind CSS)
  • MJML (email framework)

IT & Linux System Administration (approx. 2010–present):

  • Bash scripting for server administration
  • Firewalls (nftables)
  • Mail servers (based on Postfix, Dovecot, LDAP)
  • Web servers (Apache, OpenLiteSpeed)
  • XMPP messaging (ejabberd)
  • VPNs and proxies (WireGuard, OpenVPN, SoftEther)
  • Virtualization in VMware environments
