In order to successfully work in the translation industry, gaining experience abroad is a must. Having been interested in foreign cultures from an early age, travelling was one of the motivations to becoming a translator. Take a look at the places I went to during my studies and my first years in the industry:
In the summer of 2006 I travelled to Kursk, Russia, in order to complete a language programme at the Kursk State University, where I first got to know country and people.
In 2009 I completed a Joint Study Programme at the Linguistic University of Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, and deepened my knowledge about the Slavic culture.
Having graduated from Innsbruck University in 2011, I started working for Language Connect, a Language Services Provider in London, as an intern. After the internship I was offered a permanent position and decided to stay in London for a few more years. During that time I gained experience in the translation industry, optimised my time management and organisation skills and was responsible for running projects, looking after international clients and managing junior members of our team.
But also in my leisure time I enjoy travelling. It opens your mind, inspires, shapes the character and lets you see the world with different eyes. So far I have travelled Europe, South East Asia, Russia on the Trans-Siberian Railway, Central America, the Caribbean and North America and I’m looking forward to the journeys that the future holds for me.
I obtained my degree in translation and interpreting for English and Russian from the University of Innsbruck, after having completed a Joint Study Programme in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.
I started my professional career as an intern and later project manager in a London-based language services company. I gained first hands-on experience in the translation industry, worked with linguists and managed clients.
Upon my return to Austria from the UK, I launched Inn Translation in 2014 to provide language services for German speaking markets.
I became a volunteer member of Translators without Borders, which entails providing language services free of charge for communities in need.
In January 2022, I passed a competency assessment at the Austrian Federal Ministry for the Interior and have since been working as an interpreter for the Federal Office for Immigration and Asylum as well as for the police.
