Since moving from England to South Germany in 2007, I’ve built a career translating, editing, and shaping content across marketing, technical, and scientific fields – always from German into English, always with an eye for how the text will actually land with its reader.

My specialist areas include IT, engineering, higher education, life sciences, medical engineering, corporate communication, and business. It’s a broad set of fields on paper, but they share a common thread: precision matters, and so does tone.

The best of both worlds

I bring the efficiency of well-managed translation and editing processes – learned through years in industry and higher education – together with the consistency and care of an individual approach. When deadlines demand more hands, I also work with a trusted network of professional colleagues and experienced translators who share the same quality standards.

Where technology meets judgment

Translation technology isn’t just a tool I use – it’s a field I actively engage with, from supporting fellow users to shaping how these systems evolve. My work today combines Trados Studio 2026 with AI-assisted translation workflows, always with a human-in-the-loop approach: technology accelerates the process, but judgment, nuance, and quality control stay firmly in human hands. I’m equally comfortable handling complex file formats from content management systems, InDesign, or software resource files.

You can expect my work to meet the professional standards of Germany’s leading translation association, sharpened by a technology-forward approach that never loses sight of the human reader on the other end.
