Bio

14 years of full-time professional translation experience and more than 5 million words translated to date



Exceptional language proficiency, far beyond native-speaker level



18 semesters of university study across multiple disciplines, including law, philosophy, linguistics, physics, mathematics, engineering and IT



Proven record of absolute deadline compliance: not a single assignment has ever been delivered late



No serious complaints throughout my entire professional career; only very rare minor correction requests



No delivered translation has ever been rejected



Exceptionally strong text and context comprehension, particularly when dealing with difficult, ambiguous or linguistically flawed source texts


Extensive knowledge of engineering, law, mechanical engineering, contract law, banking, business, history, politics, philosophy, IT, software, mechanics and construction, enabling the reliable identification of complex contextual relationships



Highly developed stylistic and literary sensitivity, resulting in clear, precise and particularly comprehensible formulations



Consistent fidelity to the source text, without additions, omissions, narrowing or reinterpretation of content



Exceptional attention to linguistic detail: reliable detection of even the smallest errors and inconsistencies in syntax, semantics, word choice and word order



High terminological accuracy and consistent use of uniform specialist terminology



Extensive experience with legal, judicial and administrative texts, including complex subject matter and ambiguously worded source documents


Ability to correctly interpret flawed or incomplete source texts without altering their meaning independently



Thorough final review of every assignment for completeness, linguistic precision, consistency and fidelity to the source text



Confidential, independent and responsible handling of all assignments
