(Tech) editing, translations & more

I would be delighted to support you with the following services, helping you refine your texts and/or make them accessible to a wider audience. As a graduate in German and English Studies holding a Master’s degree in Literary Studies, I approach every text with a confident command of language and the utmost care.

I have extensive experience in both academic publishing and creative fields (knitting and crochet patterns in particular). Given the broad range of text types I work with — each differing significantly in style and requirements — I have intentionally not listed fixed prices below.

Please feel free to get in touch, and I will be happy to provide you with an estimate tailored precisely to your project. If you wish, I also offer a short sample edit or translation (covering a few standard pages).
