Although I am a linguist new to the translation profession and therefore still versatile in my project choices, I currently have experience in biogeochemistry, which includes aspects of forestry, ecology, biology and geology as well as global and environmental politics and the medical field. I look forward to developing new specializations. I am the founder and member of a team of European language translators specializing in EU-related issues.
Do not hesitate to contact me with a project of any size or subject, I would be happy to look it over and provide a reasonable offer. I am an ethical translator and would not take on a job that I could not complete with efficiency and accuracy.
If you are an non-profit organization or company dealing with environmental issues, global politics or human rights I would be interested in volunteering my translation and proofreading services.

I also did a year of study at Friedrich Schiller University in Jena in 2002/2003 where I completed a translation course followed by my first translation project.
