Native Speaking English Translator, Proofreader and Copywriter

I’m Philippa, a professional German to English translator originally from the UK with over a decade of experience. I specialise in delivering fluent, engaging, and accurate translations of German text into British and American English to support the medical, political, marketing/PR and corporate sectors.

In contrast to AI, my translations are human-crafted by a native English speaker, culturally appropriate, GDPR-compliant and make a powerful impression on international clients. Afterall, your business and international reputation is worth more than just machine-edited copy. Below you’ll find out what makes me stand out from the crowd in the translation and localisation industry, and why your project is in perfect hands with me.

In July 2024, I was awarded a state certification in Germany as a ‘Speech-to-Text Interpreter and Captioner’ for the hard-of-hearing. This role facilitates inclusion and barrier-free access in virtually all sectors of society.
