Since 2005 I work as a
TRANSCREATOR/TRANSLATOR & COPYWRITER, COPYEDITOR
VOICE-OVER TALENT, INTERPRETER and VOICE COACH.



• TRANSLATION/COPYWRITING:

As a translator, I put a strong focus on adapting rather than "translating"...
-> Transcreation!
Being used to "juggling" between languages; next to punctuation and orthographic particularities, I'm able to master idiomatic and cultural characteristics and styles, and, by extension, to adapt a text to the country's related needs and interests.
Combined with my extensive artistic & media education and my literary vein, I'm able to provide translations with substantial force of expression.

Words have a power...
that shouldn't be weakened by a translation.

+ Corporate ID/Branding Revision (Eng-Ger), 2018

• VOICE & PERFORMANCE COACHING:

Coaching actors, artists and performers and non-professionals for commercial purposes since 7 years.
As a coach, I put the focus on intonation and the dynamics of the voice though various exercises such as breathing technique, awareness of labial and facial muscles and tongue position, as well as body posture.

Whatever my task is, I'm both energetic and focused, very versatile, accurate, detail and deadline oriented and a good communicator.

I value precision and reliability (deadlines!) - also in my clients.

Looking forward to working with you!
