I am a freelance English to German, English to Czech translator/ consecutive interpreter based in San Diego, California.
My native languages are German and Czech equally and they are my target languages.
Before coming to the U.S., I have been working for several years as an in-house and freelance translator and court certified interpreter (German<>Czech) in Berlin, Germany. With time, my working language pairs have changed due to my location and continued education, and English>German has become the most dominant combination. My specializations are Software and Website Localization and Testing, Marketing and Advertising, Clinical Trials (Pharmaceutical Industry) and Medical Devices, Press Releases, Fashion, Travel and Subtitling.
I have been interpreting in depositions, medical evaluations, company tours and at the Miss Universe Pageant (public broadcast interpreting, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2008).
I hold a Master's Degree in Translation and Interpretation for German and Czech (Staatliches Prüfungsamt für Übersetzer, Berlin).
This and other credentials (BA in Czech and Russian, Humboldt University Berlin) have been recognized by the Academic Credentials Evaluation Institute.
I have more than 15 years of working experience, in Europe as well as in the U.S. and stay updated in my native languages through frequent travel, reading of relevant materials and cooperation/meetings with in-country colleagues.
I guarantee high quality of each translation project on or before deadline.
All of my customers can be contacted or I can provide references that have been sent to me. I can be contacted by email or Skype.
