Order Translation

Profile

I have extensive experience in the field of localization and have translated hundreds of thousands of words over the last fifteen years, both as a freelancer and as part of my work with Booking.com and in my current position as Regional Manager Germany with iCracked.

While attaining my Ph.D. at Stanford University, I even wrote my Ph.D. dissertation on aspects of Poetic Translation. And the Schöningh Publishing House just released the German version of its book „From Enemy to Brother“ to which I contributed large parts of the translation.

I have worked on business and technical documentation, have localized marketing campaigns and software tools and have translated for the gaming and film industry, the financial sector, tourism, automotive and technology. Always with a focus on diligence, reliable service, high quality and – last but not least – special requests by my customers.

English and German are both my native languages which enables me to work in both language combinations and be used more flexibly than most translators. In addition, I am familiar with different CAT software and am a quick learner with new tools as well.

Where I live

Berlin continues to be the most vibrant place in all of Europe as it continues to find its new identity after 40 years as a divided city.

Berlin offers it all: great historical monuments which provide its inhabitants and visitors with a great sense of the past, new trends in fashion, art, music, as well as beautiful nature within and around the city.
