Please note that I am currently studying to further improve my skills and I can therefore only take on a limited amount of work. This also means that I am sometimes away during normal office hours, and I will then get back to you as soon as possible.
------------------------
--> Why you should work with me
I commit 100% to the projects I get involved with and take the necessary time to provide idiomatic translations of high quality while always respecting the agreed deadline. With excellent writing skills, an eye for detail and an inherent love for languages, I enjoy my work and like to fiddle with the texts to find just the right words for each given context and situation. Moreover, I have good research and information seeking skills and aim to continuously develop my skills and knowledge in different subject areas. Terminology work and corpus-based translation are areas of special interest to me.
Apart from translating your reports, press releases, marketing material, presentations, website, software, documentation, etc., I also offer to proofread and edit your Danish translations or texts.
--> Academical background and work experience
Translation degree: BA in International Business Communication from Aarhus School of Business, Denmark (English, Spanish, Danish) with special focus on International Market Communication, Financial Translation, Marketing and Intercultural Communication.
Previously, I have spent longer periods abroad studying languages at recognized language schools and doing voluntary work in both England, Scotland and Costa Rica. In 2006 I moved to Spain, where I started my career as a freelance translator apart from working part-time as an English teacher in a private academy. Now I am based in Denmark again, where I am currently doing a Master in Specialised Translation and International Business Communication.
--> Contact
Don't hesitate to contact me for further information. I highly value long-term collaboration and good communication with clients and always answer enquiries in a timely fashion. When I am out of office during normal working hours (European time), an automatic reply will let you know when I will be able to get back to you.
Prices start from 0,12 EUR/source word and depend on the level of complexity of the text as well as the urgency of the project.
I look forward to hearing from you :-)
