Miriam Lynch
Managing Director
Prior to setting up Tasman Transcription, I was the Global Legal Business Manager for an investment bank in London. I returned to New Zealand in 2008 and set up Tasman Transcription in 2015.
With a background in law and banking, I have a keen eye for detail.
I have a typing speed of approximately 85 wpm. I am proud of the work that we do, that our clients trust us to transcribe their stories and work and to get it right.
When I am not at work, I am spending time with my husband and three children, or I love nothing more than getting out on my kayak in the Abel Tasman National Park.
Felicity Higginson
Transcriber
I am Felicity, also known as Fliss. I have a Bachelor of Education and Post Graduate Degree in Specialist Teaching. I taught in primary schools for approximately 20 years before joining the team at Tasman Transcription.
I love transcribing people’s stories and it’s a privilege to be trusted with other people’s experiences. I have also enjoyed learning a new skill and terminology.
When I am not at work, I like spending time with my family and friends, especially all the wonderful local wineries that our region has to offer.
Tessa Ford
Transcriber
I have been working in administration for approximately 30 years, as well as owning my own website design company in the past. I thoroughly enjoy working with the team at Tasman Transcription.
I particularly enjoy transcribing people’s stories, as I find they are very interesting.
When I am not working, I love to get out into the garden with my partner and to also spend time with our two cats.

Our Purpose
100% recoverable; adding value to your business through focus and industry expertise.
We believe using our services is a more cost-effective, practical solution than tying up a personal assistant with transcription duties. By getting us to do the transcribing, your business (or personal assistant) recovers 100% of the time you would have spent transcribing material yourself. Plus, because transcription is all we do, we’ll be faster and more accurate.
Transcription anytime, anywhere
We know you could need a transcript at any time of the year, anywhere in the world, so we have a sound infrastructure in place to ensure you can use our services even during holidays.
What is Audio Digital Transcription?
Audio digital transcription is the process of converting speech (usually from a recording) into a written text document. This could be content from a video, speech, interview or focus group, as well as many other sources. We take your recording and type it up into an electronic document, so it’s easy for you to use and share.
Why would you want an Audio Digital Transcription?
One of the most important reasons for transcribing audio is so you have a written record of important events, that gives you a readable document for dissemination or repurposing. You can print out in hard copy, e-mail it to stakeholders, cut and paste sections into reports, use it in collateral, post relevant sections on your website and many other uses.
