Translator e.U.
Born and bred in Austria, I am a German native speaker who works with English at native speaker level.
During my master’s degree in Applied Translation Studies, I was able to gain relevant work experience as an in-house translator at a Language Service Provider based in Leeds (UK). After completing my studies, I decided to take the leap and set up as a freelance translator.
I particularly enjoy translating texts that require specialised terminology and in doing so, I use various CAT (computer-assisted translation) tools, such as SDL Trados Studio, SDL MultiTerm, OmegaT, memoQ and Memsource, to help maintain consistency and increase productivity. That being said, I also like the challenge of working on more creative translations and transcreation.
