About me

With a strong passion for languages, travel and history I studied French and History to degree level in Germany and France, finishing with the First State Examination for Teachers (1. Staatsexamen). After leaving university I worked as a researcher and producer on history documentaries in a German film production company for five years.

Having moved to England in 2005, I set up as a full-time translator and researcher. In 2008 I became a member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists, the UK's leading body for translators and interpreters. Due to my background my areas of expertise include history and social sciences, and texts from these areas are particularly welcome! I also used to work as a copywriter for a financial services website and therefore specialise in finance and commerce, as well as human resources and management training courses.

I have a proven track record for offering creative, customer-focused language solutions and a reputation for working accurately with a great eye for detail. Your translations will always be written in the elegant, smooth German of a native speaker with a sound training and experience in humanities and journalism.
