Publications & Translations
Writing has been the backbone of my professional career – from scholarly articles, teaching materials and readings, to marketing copy. In addition to my own original texts, I am a translator of German into English. It is a labor of love, but translation introduces a different relationship to the language and demands a different approach to writing.
