Bio

Even as a child I wanted to move to Hungary. Born in Germany with a bilingual background I made my dream come true at the age of 18 and moved to Szekszárd where I started working as a Volunteer in a kindergarten. After learning some basic Hungarian I decided to study early childhood education with bilingual focus. After working in my field and giving birth to my two older children I started translating for MOZAIK, an internationally recognised publisher for school materials.

After having acquired a basic knowledge of translation, I passed the exam for becoming a state-approved translator for Hungarian and German at the ELTE University in Budapest in 2015. Since then I have been working full-time as a freelance translator and proofreader.

My main areas of expertise in translation and proofreading include art and culture, especially music and literature, but also theatre and film translations, as well as translations in the fields of tourism, management, law, education, PR, humanities, politics, gastronomy and crafts. I am a loyal, reliable, flexible and above all creative translator who sees her profession as her calling and whose passion for the Hungarian and German languages makes her a professional, motivated and competent language service provider.
