Languages are my passion – for me, they represent freedom and are a means to connect people and cultures. This is why it was easy for me to decide what career I wanted to pursue.
I founded my business more than 10 years ago after studying for three years to become a certified translator and interpreter for English and German and being publicly appointed and sworn in at the Würzburg regional court (Landgericht). I subsequently completed my Master’s degree at the University of Salford in England, where I was awarded the Master of Arts in Interpreting and Translating with distinction.
Since then, I have worked in a number of subject areas – with a focus on medical and pharmaceutical texts – and have already interpreted at numerous conferences and other occasions covering a highly diverse range of topics and fields.
