Language is precision.
Translation is craft.

Since 2001, I have been delivering translations from English into Danish as well as from Swedish and Norwegian (Bokmål). My services also include editing, proofreading, linguistic consultancy and quality control.

I deliver functional translations that bring the message efficiently across to the target market, helping you and your clients appear professional in their international communications.

My background is linguistic, and I have a healthy blend of well-developed skills, insights from more than two decades of translation experience, a keen interest in my subject matters, and a deep understanding of language, morphology and jargon.

It is my overall mission to improve the quality of materials translated for the Danish market, and to be a resource for businesses who need that standard.
