I have been working as a freelance translator since 2012, mostly from German to English. I am specialized in cultural heritage, literature, and the arts, with a particular focus on Jewish and queer history. My clients include universities, scholars, museums, and government agencies. Book translations include academic monographs and anthologies, museum catalogues, and a poetry collection.
I occasionally translate from French, typically in the realm of visual art for clients such as ifa. I also regularly translate between Yiddish and English in the context of my associated projects.
Here is a selection of my academic and literary translations. Running themes have included Jewish and queer culture, the Eastern Bloc under socialism, and counter-histories.
Apart from the larger projects presented here, I regularly translate academic articles and book chapters, lectures, websites, and other smaller texts.
I have translated a variety of museum exhibitions and catalogues, often in collaboration with fellow translators. My particular focus here has been on Jewish history, art, and culture.
