About me

I am a native Swedish freelance translator, living in the US since 2001. I work full time providing translation, editing and proofreading services from English into Swedish, and sometimes Swedish into English. I have also performed several copy writing jobs and quality assessments of other people’s translations. Before moving to the US, I worked as a Product Marketing Manager for a telecommunications company in Sweden. During my time there I also translated documents between English and Swedish and Finnish and Swedish. I have a M.A. in business communication and a M.Sc. in Economics.

I am an active member of the American Translators Association and it’s Nordic Division, where I am currently working on starting a certification program for English into Swedish, plus administering our new blog. I am also a member of the Swedish Association for Professional Translators in Sweden.

I am very comfortable using the latest versions of different translation software, MS Office and the Internet. I stick religiously to deadlines and pride myself in offering high quality translations that are proofread and edited. I have extensive knowledge and experience with both the Swedish and North American cultures. I travel to Sweden every year and I keep myself updated within my fields of expertise in both languages in order to be able to offer a professional and natural translation.
