Bio
I am a professional opera singer and translator living in Sweden. I spent 14 years in the U.K., first studying singing and then working as a freelance singer and translator. During my studies I gained several degrees: Master of Opera, MMus (Opera) and a First Class BMus (Hons) degree from Birmingham Conservatoire

As it is almost impossible to make a full time living in the classical music profession I realised that I needed a second source of income. The obvious choice for me was translation My many years in the UK means that I speak fluent English and have a thorough training in writing academic English. Opera singing and translation also work beautifully well together as both professions require creative use of words.

For many years I have grown my translation business and translating experience, and I can now claim to be a very experienced and highly appreciated translator. I translate and review in a wide variety of fields, including IT, journalism, manuals, e-learning, travel, music, customer research etc., and I specialise in transcreation of marketing material.
I can also help you subtitle your videos and films.

The translation agencies I work for include: Lionbridge, VistaTEC, Hogarth Worldwide, Binari Sonari, ASET, SDI, TransCom, Metis Training & Development Ltd, LinguaVox, Quills, Transperfect, Global Languages, Softitler, Language Networks, Edge Translations, Bon Heure Translations, TextAppeal, RSAMD, Amphi Produktion, TransCom and many more.
