After completing a Magister(~MA)-diploma in Dutch Literature at the University of Vienna, specializing on Hugo Claus and William Faulkner, I lived in the US for six years. Since 2016 I have been translating several samples for publishers and have taken classes in literary translating with Ulrich Blumenbach, Christian Hansen, Dr. Ina Pfitzner, Rolf Erdorf and others. In 2018 I earned a scholarship from the Expertisecentrum Literair Vertalen. Two of my translations have been published.
