Lena Walcher

I am a trained interpreter and translator, and my native language is Russian.

After my studies, I worked with foreign languages in customer service, learning a lot about contracts, finance, and logistics. These experiences later helped me when I started freelancing in 2012 and specialized in business and law (ew-ts.de)

Five reasons why I might be the right interpreter and translator for your project:

Relevant education

Translator diploma from the State Linguistic University in Irkutsk (Russia) and Master's degree in Conference Interpreting from the University of Heidelberg (Germany)

12 years of professional experience

Since 2012, I have been working as a freelance interpreter and translator for companies, authorities, and private clients. What I am proud of: 100% adherence to deadlines, long-term clients, clear specialization, and membership in the professional associations BDÜ and VKD.

Sworn and authorized

This means I am authorized to interpret in court and provide certified translations (with stamp and signature).

Colleague network

Several years of freelancing have taught me to appreciate teamwork. I know my limits and have colleagues I can turn to when an assignment is large and urgent or when multiple interpreters are needed.

Open to technology

When it makes sense and is possible to use machine translation and AI – i.e., good training data, technical conditions, and a suitable task – I am happy to get involved in such projects.
