About Victoria

I am a freelancer in editing, proofreading, and text creation, working entirely remotely. My main profession is flight attendant, which makes me very flexible with my time and allows me to complete projects reliably and on schedule.
I studied teaching for German, Italian, and Mathematics, hold a Bachelor's degree in Romance Studies and Empirical Linguistics, and a Master's degree in German Literature. Consequently, I am confident in stylistic, grammatical, and academic work.
I would be happy to support you with proofreading and editing (non-fiction texts, academic papers, web texts), stylistic revision, writing, editorial assistance, and translations from German to Italian. I look forward to working with you!
