About me

Between 1997 and 2003 I was an English teacher at a small Secondary School in Iceland. During that time I was also a freelance translator in my spare time, or since 1996. Since mid-year 2003, however, I have been a full-time translator.
I hold a BA degree in English and Comparative Literature, with an emphasis on translation theory and translation studies. My (specialization) is literature, but I have as well gained experience in general texts, along with texts concerning business, telecommunications and marketing. Certainly I feel more comfortable translating into Icelandic, but having been translating texts on the aluminium industry, hydropower, and fish farming, from Icelandic into English as a subcontractor to an Icelandic translation service run by an English native speaker, I feel pretty comfortable with that as well.
I am currently studying for my MA degree in English and Translation Studies.

For background information relating to accomplishments and personal information, see my website.

	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.
