Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I make texts understandable – as a translator, editor, and specialist for Easy Language.

My focus is on barrier-free communication: Since the Accessibility Strengthening Act 2025, many companies must make their content accessible. I translate complex texts into Easy Language according to the rules of the Easy Language Network and BITV 2.0 – official documents, websites, brochures.

In addition, I translate German-English (focus IT, gaming, marketing) and edit in both languages.

Where does my quality claim come from? Before I became self-employed, I was a QA Manager at Jung von Matt – quality assurance for BMW, Sparkasse, and Montblanc. Before that, Game Testing at InnoGames and Goodgame Studios. Precision and consistency are not buzzwords, but my daily work for over ten years.
