BIO
I am a US-born, Berlin-based translator from German to English. After graduating from Sarah Lawrence College in New York with a degree in creative writing and languages, I received a fellowship from the US National Endowment for the Arts to translate Ron Winkler’s poetry collection Fragmented Waters. I have been translating full-time since 2012 with focuses on literature, arts, and academic writing, especially on LGBTQ+ and Jewish themes. As editor in chief of SAND: Berlin’s English Literary Journal, I oversee a 17-person team that publishes two annual issues and hosts regular literary events.
