The focus of my work lies on providing easy-to-read and faultless texts that are appropriate for the context while retaining the style of the author.

Following is a list of the services I provide to give you an idea of how I work and what you can expect. As every task is different, you are welcome to contact me to discuss your specific project.

Translation is not a mere reproduction of a text in another language. My aim is to provide you with a text that feels like an original text in the target language.
