I am a 42-year old woman working as a freelance translator with the language combination English – Swedish and German – Swedish. In my job as a translator I appreciate quality, loyalty and efficiency.

I have two different degrees; a Master of Arts with specialization in Technical translation (English – Swedish) and a Degree of Master of Education (English and German). I have been working as a freelance translator since 2012, translating and proofreading different types of texts, for example different product descriptions for e-commerce websites, commercial texts about fitness and tennis, marketing texts about retail, cosmetics and clothes, hotel descriptions, terms and conditions, general business texts, manuals, educational texts, surveys etc. In my profession as a teacher I have taught English at several different profiles at upper secondary level; shipping, hotel, restaurant, hairdressing, vehicle- and transportation techniques, nursing, economy and marketing. Mostly I have been working at a shipping-profile. This work has given me knowledge of many different areas, which I can benefit from in my work as a translator. I have also taught German at upper secondary level. During the years I have also taken courses in areas that I found interesting, e.g. food and diet, sports, navigation and law.

My two biggest interests in life are travelling and sports. I am very interested in the culture, environment and living conditions in different countries, and over the years I have visited many places. Regarding sports is almost everything of great interest to me and I practice cross-country skiing, running, cycling and weight myself. I also have a passionate interest in ice-hockey, athletics and health. In my spare time I also like to cook.

As a person I am dedicated, ambitious, responsible, structured and accurate, and I appreciate to strive towards targets set at high levels and within given time frames.
