Bio
Born to an American Mother and German Father I grew up completely bilingual and went through schooling in Germany. I honestly cannot remember when I started translating, but I do know that at 15 I was helping with simultaneous translation from German to English during church services. Translation between my two native tongues has been so much a part of every day life for me for so long, it flows naturally.
I majored in English and German for Abitur (to be compared with an Associates Degree in the US or A-Levels in England), and then went on to get a Bachelors Degree in Biblical Studies with an international university, studying in over 10 locations around the world. Languages and their intricacies, their deep-rooted connection to cultures, and the understanding they provide into the way people think, have long been a passion for me. I always aim to translate not only the letter but the spirit of a text, to capture the culturally appropriate way of expressing idioms or even jokes.
