Bio

Hello There,


As a bit of background, I began spending roughly half of each year in Germany & Europe a little over 20 years ago and have lived in Germany year-round since 2017.

Now 15 years and well over 5 million successfully translated words later, I still thoroughly enjoy my work and have found that one of the many keys to delivering high-quality translations is complete immersion into the specific subject and it's respective terminology. I achieve this through CAT tool utilisation, targeted research and an absolute dedication to “getting it right” for my clients and their intended readers.

I look forward to hearing from you!


Mary
