Who I Am and What I Do

Based in the beautiful Free Hanseatic City of Bremen, I have been a self-employed translator and transcreator since 2013.

I have successfully helped clients from English-speaking countries communicate in accurate and effective German since 1995.

As a language enthusiast, my great passion is to help you grow your business by providing you with German wow-factor texts—texts that are a) clearly and convincingly written and b) linguis-
tically and culturally adapted to
your target audience.

What Else Might Be of Interest to You?

My second area of expertise—TravelTourismHospitality—was born out of my passion for traveling, foreign countries and cultures, flora and fauna, picturesque landscapes, and exciting cities.

Apart from translating and transcreating, I enjoy attending professional development events related to translation, marketing, travel, tourism, and hospitality. I also enjoy reading quality newspapers, travel guidebooks, marketing and advertising magazines, and books about foreign countries and cultures in both English and German. Additionally, I love cooking, photographing nature and landscapes, hiking and biking in nearby recreation areas, and traveling.
