Bio

Very briefly.

In what way is my offer different? I will always attempt to, and in most cases succeed, to make sense of the text at hand, in both the original language and the target language.

My experience is that the drafting skills of original writers vary a lot. Your customer wants perfection!

I am a technical nuts-and-bolts person. If you give me a manual, a contract, a patent to translate, I will make every effort to understand the process myself before translating it. Put myself in the shoes of the end user of the text, if you will. For me, then, translation is not just a row of words. There is somebody there who needs that text. Be it a manual that is necessary to use equipment safely, be it a contract or other legal document that must  have the effect desired and contemplated by the parties.
