Alman Tradiktè yo nan Illinois

My longest project so far has been a 7-month French proofreading contract with WorldBook Encyclopedia. It gave me the chance to use one of my best skills - research. Advertisements and other tricky texts are no problem, as I am very creative with words (though only when necessary!)

Native German speaker. Studied German, British and Us Literature in College. Awarded scholarship to attend in the US. Hold an MBA in Intl. Business and Marketing. Worked for multiple multi-national companies.

Years of cross cultural experience, living in foreign lands, industry focused areas.

I worked on a voluntary basis as a translator for immigrants from Hungaria and Romania. I did this for less than a year, than I moved with my husband to the US.

My experience includes 4 years living in Croatia, where, as the translation and interpretation coordinator for the European Community Monitor Mission, my responsibilities included translating a wide variety of general and specialized texts from Croatian into English and vice-versa, consecutive and escort interpreting, managing a 10-member translation team, editing, and proofreading. In addition, I developed and implemented interpreter role-play training scenarios and tested and trained all interpreter and translator candidates for the ECMM’s large roster of freelancers. I have also lived in Germany and studied business and economics (in German) as well as German language at the University of Kiel. As in-house technical documentation staff for a German-owned US company for 10 years, I have extensive experience translating technical specifications, operations manuals and research reports relating to industrial equipment, as well as advertising materials, financial and legal documents, and news articles.
