​Quality Proofreading Services

​

Hello, lovers of the English language!

I have lived most of my life in Germany and immigrated to New Zealand in 2004. 
Looking back over my early career, it became clear that English was for me:
  • I started working for a company manufacturing electronic items for the American market, so I had to learn all the industry-related terms in English – and I loved it!
  • This led to a job where I translated electronic instruction manuals from German to English.
  • In another job I was the secretary and all business proposals were done in English, proofread and all.

One can say, I do love the English language, did I mention this?

I have been doing all kinds of proofreading and editing in English in a variety of industries:
  • Tourism, accommodation, hospitality, leisure activities bookings / management
  • Residential and commercial rental management, real estate transactions
  • Financial management
  • Electrical administration / marketing
  • Architectural design administration / council consents / project management

Utilising my German stubbornness and accuracy has proved invaluable, coupled with my thirst for learning and being the best I can.
