Bio

Hi, and thanks for visiting my profile page!

This is a brief description of who I am, and some of my translation experiences.

First of all, I want you to know that I have several regular customers who are happy with the work I do for them.

Recent work: I have done a lot of subtitling this year (2022) for different TV shows and series. Websites, user manuals and meta descriptions are also some of the works I have been doing lately.

My background as a translator started late 80's, as I had to use English written books at the university when studying to become a Civil Engineer.

Later I have been working for an English owned company in Norway for 10 years. Translating between the Norwegian and English offices consisted of mostly technical matters, but also newsletters and website updates.

By working for a Real Estate Office in Turkey, parts of my work consisted of translating property descriptions from English to Norwegian.

Gaming is one of my interests, and therefore I also know the gaming terminology well.

I'm also into art of all sorts, as I run a small gallery, and I also work as an actor for a local theater.

British friends are also my source to learning more, as they tell me when I say or write something incorrectly. 

Feel free to ask if you need to know more. I might just have forgotten to mention the field you are interested in...
