My story

Growing up in Germany, I have always been fascinated by different cultures and nations. This curiosity led me to embark on a journey of travel, which ultimately brought me to the picturesque province of British Columbia, where I studied geology and worked in remote locations in Canada’s Far North. I relished the blend of scientific research, exotic exploration, and immersion in the English language.

Following the start of my family, I recognized an opportunity to pursue my passions and utilize my language skills and cultural knowledge from the comfort of my home. To achieve this, I enrolled in a translation program at AKAD in Stuttgart and have been working as a professional translator since 2005.

 

In my free time…

When not working on the translation of documents in various fields, including but not limited to engineering, tourism, science, law, and more, I enjoy spending time with my family exploring, capturing, and documenting the natural beauty of British Columbia through photography and videography.

Please take a moment to review my services and see how I can assist you with your language-related needs.
