Bio
I am a social anthropologist by training with a focus on contemporary German cultures of immigration and integration, though I have also completed degrees in German history and linguistics, as well as international relations, allowing me to translate, with great expertise, difficult academic texts and presentations in the social sciences and the humanities. For more than two years I have worked as the in-house language expert for a Berlin-based historical research institute, prior to which I followed my love of language to English-teaching and copy-editing opportunities, often in the form of web-content management.

At heart, I am passionate about public access to history, global culture, and the arts. Through various professional experiences in museums, galleries, and event-planning organizations I have gained a wide range of skill in the translation and preparation of exhibit text and/or informational documentation for the general public.

Though I now call Berlin, Germany home, I am originally from the northwestern corner of the United States, where I first became well acquainted with the German language through a high-school exchange program. I have been a student of its ways ever since, recently completing a German-language degree in social anthropology this past fall.

I am eager to expand my translation repertoire and look forward to opportunities to do so.
