Bio
I'm a Comparative Literature graduate with 3+ years of experience in literary, technical and marketing translation. I currently specialise in Romantic Comedy novels and would like to expand this field. Most recently, I translated the novel Sorry Not Sorry by Sophie Ranald (Bookouture). I also specialise in opera text translation and have a proven track record through working with the Royal Opera House in London. Further, I am open to translations from Ladin to English/German and am highly interested in minority language texts. I am reliable, the rates are reasonable and I look forward to challenging myself.
