A Wide Range of Global Communication Services

Whether for print, web, mobile apps or film & TV, I offer a wide range of global communication services related to translation, editing, project management and culturally-specific communication consulting.

Successful international corporate branding requires not only a strong working knowledge of a company's products and offering, but also a deep understanding of the cultural tastes and sensibilities of local markets. I have extensive experience in crafting external and internal communications for maximum impact based on my focus on target-audiences in business, media, film, and the arts.

As my core competency, I focus on the language pairs that I know best: EN>DE and DE>EN in the following service areas:

Translation – Not all copy is the same. Yet, the right content is everything. There is a solution for all translations between "technically accurate" and "creatively adapted", but cultural relativity is key. Often simple English expressions don't work out in German and the same is true in reverse. Plus, context can be just as important as content. That is why I always strive to adhere to the golden rule: "Know your audience."

Editing – Editing is no end in itself, yet "quite alright" means things could be better. I have the technical and creative skills to edit, correct and rework any text and MT output for accuracy and maximum impact, and to rid your copy of filler words, drawn out paragraphs and simply wrong wording.

Project Management – Budgets, timelines, deliverables – project management means having everyone on the same page, while keeping an eye on the ball. Setting – and adhering to – fixed goals is key, because what counts are end results and a happy client.
