About me

I’ve worked in the translation industry for more than 20 years. Here’s a list of the key milestones in my career:

  • studied at the Faculty of Translation Studies, Linguistics and Cultural Studies in Germersheim am Rhein, specialising in engineering and natural sciences
  • 2 years working as a project manager and translator in the translation department of a major international group
  • 12 years living and working in London; first, as an in-house employee for a small, specialist translation agency, responsible for project management, quality management and translation; working freelance since 2015
  • during this time, I also studied remotely at The Open University, Milton Keynes, focussing on geology; I was awarded a BSc (Hons) Nat Sci (Open)
  • resident in Germany since 2020 (in North Frisia)
  • 2025: Terminology Certificate from the German Terminology Association (DTT)

I am a member of the Bundesverband der Dolmetscher und Übersetzer (BDÜ)  (Federal Association of Interpreters and Translators) and the German Terminology Association (DTT). I am also a Fellow of the Geological Society of London (GSL).
