Ph.D. Germanic Languages and Literatures (2013)
Washington University in St. Louis
Precision. Professionalism. Linguistic expertise.
Welcome to my page! I'm so glad you're here. I am a native English speaker (US), full-time German to English translator, and professional German nerd. I got my Ph.D. in Germanic Languages and Literatures in 2013 and, after teaching at several universities, decided to launch a career in translation. I have been expanding my translation portfolio ever since, working with small and mid-sized businesses and multinational corporations alike from my home base here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I look forward to collaborating with you on your next translation project.

Areas of Expertise
Website translations, marketing texts, corporate communications, technical translations, legal translations.
I am a generalist, and translate in a wide range of fields and disciplines. Interested in translating your website? Although my background is in literature and academia, over the last decade, I have translated for major German hotel chains, family-owned construction enterprises, major toy manufacturers, international automotive corporations, and more. I have experience translating everything from product descriptions to marketing copy and brand slogans for companies in German-speaking or DACH countries.
Need a technical or legal translation? Much of my day-to-day work consists of translating technical documents, including operating manuals, product specifications, and handbooks. I pride myself on delivering precise legal translations of documents like General Terms and Conditions, employment contracts, and GDPR-compliant privacy notices. Have a unique project? Let's talk! I'm always interested in meeting new clients and taking on new challenges.
