Bio

I am a Modern Languages specialist by training, a freelance translator, creative writer, and overall language enthusiast living between the UK and Germany. My whole life happens at the intersections between German and English. I have translated German government documents and forms as a volunteer for a refugee law clinic in Berlin, literary and journalistic texts for my undergraduate students at the University of Cambridge, advertising materials for conferences, academic research proposals, family recipes, poetry. Best of all, I work to tight deadlines and have a high attention to detail!


What I typically offer:

- online content localization (blog posts, articles, social media posts, website content, marketing copy, emails)

- literary translation (books, manuscripts, samples, readers' reports, blurbs, rights catalogues)


What you'll get: 

- fast and efficient service

- in-depth communication, so I know exactly what you need

- my years of experience as a translator and translation instructor

- translations done by a native speaker of German and a friendly and curious human being who will genuinely engage with your source text
