About me
Our translation office covers most areas and language combinations. German-English is the only language combination I partially cover myself.

The subjects listed under 'expertise' are what I cover personally, with special emphasis on those I once studied at uni, i.e. Science (Chem., Phys., Maths, Pharm.) and Mech. Engineering, closely followed by more subjects I take a great interest in, such as Sports / Marketing / Advertising / Sports, and more Sports (in particular football, golf, rugby, snooker/pool, athletics, darts, swimming etc. - but not American football, baseball, basketball, and definitely not cricket! :-)).

My Context GmbH colleagues do a better job of others.

Moved from Dublin/Ireland to Cologne/Germany in 1982
My translating experience: since 1986
Context was formed in 1990. I joined as a partner later.

Because I am asked so often how my name is pronounced: Killy-en (rhymes with Gillian)

Must see project before quote can be submitted.
Prices dependent on turnaround time, degree of difficulty, format etc.

We were offered the so-called Proz "Certified Pro" status, but declined because we do not consider Proz to be a linguistic authority.

Likewise we do not endorse the site's so-called "Professional Guidelines", because in our 8 years of membership, we have not witnessed them being enforced in the interest of true professionals.

(That was just to explain the absence of those two "items" on this profile. :-) )
