About me
I am native Norwegian and live in Oslo, Norway. My education is both military and academic. I have a Bachelors Degree in Eastern European languages from the University of Oslo and The Norwegian Defence Academy.

My education has given me a thorough background in translation standard and methodology. I have worked as an interpreter and translator for The Norwegian Armed Forces, and I've been deployed in Bosnia, Kosovo and Iraq. In between deployments I've had civilian jobs within Finance and Insurance, in addition to freelance work as translator, interpreter and journalist.
