I was born and grew up in Hamburg, in the north of Germany. During my studies at Kiel University I spent a year as a foreign language assistant in Scotland and fell in love with the wittiness of the people and the beauty of the countryside. In 1997 I finally moved to a cosy little cottage situated in the hills north of Dundee. Ever since then I translated and interpreted for friends and acquaintances whenever the need arose. As I enjoyed this tremendously I decided to become a qualified translator. In 2005 I started working as a freelance translator and proofreader.

I hold university degrees in linguistics and German literature as well as in sports science. I am also a qualified German teacher and spend many hours coaching gymnastics in my free time.

My area of expertise is sport, recreation and healthy lifestyles. After my studies I started working in sports development and sports coaching, which allowed me to build up a sound understanding of a range of physical, social, developmental and psychological aspects of sport in its many facets. Since I started out as a freelancer I gained experience in the translation of dissertations, brochures and websites. Since February 2007 I have been translating television programmes covering the big yacht races around the world. Sailing has since become another area of expertise.
