Translation & Editing

I take on translation and editorial projects in the arts, humanities, and qualitative social sciences. I'm a bilingual speaker of English and German, and a member of the Austrian Association of Literary and Scientific Translators. My clients include major public universities in Vienna, fiction and non-fiction presses in the DACH region, and individual authors.

I take on editing projects for BA, MA, and PhD theses, as well as book manuscripts and grant applications.

How I work with your writing

Translation

My working languages are German and English, which I translate both ways. I translate book manuscripts, exhibition catalogues, theses, and articles.

Developmental Editing

Let me help you with the big issues of your text: structure, coherence, and argument.

Line & Copy Editing

Line edits improve the readability of your text: syntax, phrasing, word choice, and style. Copy edits provide a second pair of eyes for grammar, punctuation, formatting, and spelling.
