About me

I was born in Germany and moved to the United States at the age of 27. Over the past 16 years, I have worked as an office manager and translator at the United Nations, received a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of California at Berkeley, and taught classes in translation, language, literature, and film at the University of California at Davis. I have been translating academic articles, books, and oral presentations from English to German for faculty at three major California universities since 1996, in addition to occasional work for artists, advertisement agencies, and, most recently, for the Center of Human Rights at UC Davis. I also write for myself and have published articles on collective memory as well as fictional short stories.

Keywords: German, academics, art, history, literature, social sciences, politics, education, pedagogy

	X Why did the menu change? The updates to the menu were made to make the site easy and more intuitive for visitors. Obviously, like any change, this may take a few days to get used to. The dropdown menus have been divided into two-dimensional panels with similar items grouped together under headings. This eliminates scrolling for those with smaller screens, and also improves readability. More information on the changes... Where is the "My ProZ.com" menu? Mouseover your name at the top of the screen. Here you will find information about your account, your email settings, and more. The "My ProZ.com" menu was moved up here to simplify the main navigation, and to keep all of this type of information together.
