Bio
I am a literary enthusiast, a keen writer. I love to tinker with words to create smooth, easy to read and well-balanced sentences. Hence my love of poetry, but also of well-writen prose and other kind of stories.

My main areas of expertise as translator are: marketing (transcreation), technical, and literature.
And as a former desk editor for an international publishing house I can also be of benefit for your publishing project.

I have translated marketing material, including websites, brochures, PowerPoint-presentations, and marketing research reports.
I have translated technical documents, including work instructions, safety instructions, and audit and score cards.
I have translated internet security material, including brochures and company film subtitles.
I have translated and edited books, both fiction and nonfiction.

I work with SDL Trados Studio 2019 (certified user).

Contact me if you have a linguistic question or you're looking for a quote.

A large project I was working on is finished; therefore, I'm available for new assignments.
