Bio

I am your post-editor.

Of course, I also do translations from scratch and I take pleasure in getting acquainted with new topics. My favourite topics are medical, electronics, automotove, aircraft, and others.

How I became what I am:

passed the intermediate exam at University of Heidelberg
(Institut für Übersetzen und Dolmetschen) in 1981; final exam at Heidelberg language school (Englisches Institut Heidelberg) in 1983: state approved translator for English and French

started my carreer as a foreign language assistant with various companies such as Degussa AG and Financial Times Europe Ltd

switched to freelancing (after becoming a mother) and worked for publishing houses like Cora-Verlag, Harlequin Books, Ullstein-Buchverlage - translating novels, including one by best-selling author Audrey Carlan

reinvented myself as a technical translator in 2015 - an exciting new challenge

For more than two years now I've post-edited the German version of product highlights for an international electronics Distributor on a daily basis.

I also translate PIL, manuals, operating instructions, websites for tanslation agencies and will be glad to answer any requests from LSPs.
