My strengths as an interpreter

I interpret with care AND precision. It is part of my job to literally lend my voice to others. For me, empathy is just as much a part of my work as achieving the greatest possible precision in tone and content.

About my interpreting experience

I offer professional interpreting and translation services between German and English, with a focus on public institutions, healthcare settings, courts, and conferences. With over 10 years of experience, I support clients in critical contexts where clear and culturally sensitive communication is essential. In addition, I translate specialist documents for ministries, government agencies, and NGOs in the fields of law, education, politics, and social affairs. For Spanish, I am state-certified and sworn by the President of the Berlin Regional Court. My English skills are certified at C2 level, ensuring reliable and precise linguistic support in both languages.

About me (place of birth, native language, other details)

My passion for language began early – Latin was my first foreign language, and I’ve been fascinated ever since by the many layers of meaning that words can hold. This fascination has accompanied me throughout my academic and professional journey – as a speechwriter, doctoral researcher, and now as a freelance interpreter and translator working with Spanish, English and German. What all of these roles have in common? For me, every word counts – and so do the subtleties in between. The things that are deliberately expressed but often overlooked deserve just as much attention. As a state-certified and court-sworn translator and interpreter for Spanish-German, I offer officially recognised translations of documents such as certificates, contracts, legal or academic texts. For English, my knowledge is certifed at a C2-level. I draw on many years of experience and have completed hundreds of interpreting and translation assignments – in hospitals, government and education entitities, conferences and at court (where I was sworn in for each individual proceeding). Based in Berlin, I support private clients, companies and organisations across Germany and internationally.
