Bio

I have a master's degree in Danish Literature, Communication and History from University of Southern Denmark. 

Worked 18 years as a lecturer at University of Southern Denmark and the Teacher Training College of Odense as a lecturer in Danish language and literature.

5 years experience as communication consultant for the Science Faculty of the University of  Southern Denmark.

I am an experienced translator and have translated several books from German, English, Swedish and Norwegian to Danish for several different publishing houses. Among my translations from German to Danish are Juan Moreno's 'Tausend Zeilen Lüge' and Corina Bomann's Farben-trilogy: Sofias Hoffnung, Sofias Träume and Sofias Triumph. From English to Danish I can mention Dean Nicholsons wonderful Nala's World and Anna Lea's Blood Queen. Right now I am working on Steven Brusatte's The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs. My Swedish translations to Danish are primarily thrillers a.o. Christina Larsson's series Agenturet 1-4. I have done numerous Norwegian translations mainly series like Aud Midtsund's Tårnhuset and Malmbyen.

I work in all kind of CAT tools and besides my literary translations I have also contributed to medical, technical, pedagogical and scientific projects. Feel free to ask me for a full CV if you need more info.
