I am german, currently living in Brazil, and have over 14 years translation experience in german, english, portuguese, spanish and italian, mostly at the chemical and business field. I worked for Pallmann Maschinenfabrik GmbH & Co.KG from 1993 to 1996 in the translation department where my main task was to translate and adequate the machinery manuals to the EU-norms (English, portuguese, spanish, french and italian).

In 1997 I moved to Brazil to work for the largest Ford dealer of the country and spent an year working as a personal intepretator for him.

1998 I started at A.T. Kearney Consulting, an american company, where I was responsible to the entire financial and chemical goods division. I left the company in 2001 and from this time on I worked only freelancer basis for some major companies such as Launch ltd (a large tools manufacturer from China) and Telefónica (a spanish owned telecom company).
