Carrie Livermore Fischer has been working in the language and localization world for almost three decades now. She is the Internationalization Manager at Subway, the US-based quick-service restaurant (QSR) franchise. Founded in 1965, Subway now has well over 43,000 restaurants in over 100 countries, and the company was named as one of the fastest-growing franchises in the world by Entrepreneur magazine.

With a background in French business and translation, Carrie started her career at Transparent Language, a language-learning company based in New Hampshire. From there, she moved to Connecticut to join Hyperion Solutions, where she helped create a localization department that could handle all of Engineering’s globalization needs.

After Hyperion Solutions was bought up by Oracle, Carrie stayed on and learned how a large corporation manages all of its globalization requirements. After 14 years with Hyperion/Oracle, she relocated again, this time to Boise, Idaho, to take on the role of Localization Program Manager at Bodybuilding.com. Eventually, in 2017, Carrie joined Subway in her most recent position.
