Bio

About me:

I am a Social- and Cultural Anthropologist with many years of experience in Social Work both in practical field work and in theoretical analysis. I am specializing in migration, gender, national identities, social movements etc. but I am very interested in many other subjects of social understanding. 

 I was born in Switzerland but I am living since 1996 in Spain where I am working as a freelance translator, also doing German proofreading especially in social science and literature. Furthermore I am working as external expert for Bachelor Theses at the University of Applied Science of Northwestern Switzerland. My language pair is Spanish-German but I also translate viceversa, Galician-German and English-German.
Literature and arts are my favourites, I am writing short stories and poetry in German and in Spanish. 
My first crime novel was published in october 2022 by inday editions: https://indayi.de/product/hass-nahrt-hass-das-geheimnis-um-die-zerbrochene-urne/

My work experience:

I have been translating texts and documents about
tourisme, culture, art, music, health, cosmetics, beauty, nutrition, business, politics, user manuals, contracts (labor and real estate) product promotion, marketing, certifications etc.
