About me

Quality Written Translations


I am not an agency, and I do not subcontract my work. Your documents will be manually translated by me using the best software, tools and resources available and drawing on my extensive knowledge of and experience with the German and English languages. I work with all my customers on a personalized, one-to-one basis.


Because I lived in Germany for over ten years and still spend a portion of my time there, I have a near-native command not only of standard conversational German but of technical jargon, regional variances and slang. I will not misunderstand, misinterpret or guess at the content of your German document. I will also produce a document in grammatically correct and sophisticated American English in a style appropriate to your target audience.


I translate only from German into English for two reasons: English is my native tongue and English is the language spoken in the country in which I reside. This restrictive focus ensures that the English translation you receive will convey the nuance of a native speaker and tone of the contemporary, living language. This furthermore represents best practice in the field of translation and is indicative of my work ethic.


I am a full-time translator working from a dedicated home office equipped with state-of-the-art hardware and software.
