Summary

I am a versatile and meticulous language professional with a proven track record in translation, project management, and digital content creation. Having spent years translating complex technical, medical, legal, and commercial texts from English and German into Slovenian, I developed an uncompromising eye for linguistic precision and deep cultural nuance. My background in project management further sharpened my ability to coordinate multilingual workflows, lead cross-functional collaborations, and meet high-stakes deadlines without sacrificing quality.

Today, as an independent language specialist and entrepreneur, I combine this deep linguistic foundation with a modern, tech-savvy approach. Whether I am delivering customized Slovenian and English lessons to international students, craftily localizing content, or performing professional proofreading and editing, my focus is always on clarity and impact. I seamlessly integrate modern digital tools and AI into my workflow to streamline educational materials and elevate content quality. Resourceful, adaptable, and deeply passionate about communication, I am dedicated to helping clients bridge language gaps and present their ideas with absolute confidence.
