Bio

Reliable and multi-skilled translator with a great passion for history and old documents, such as diaries, letters, contracts, birth, death, and marrige certificates and the like.

Deciphering handwritten documents often is a greater challenge than translating them. For this kind of work my experience in transcribing many texts as a volunteer comes in handy. By volunteering in the transcription of all kinds of texts I have been able to gather profound knowledge of old German termininology as well as of the corresponding text types and formats.

I am looking forward to receiving your inquiry - please together with a sample of the text.
