Hello, nice to meet you!
My name is Pipeline Karlsson, and I am a 29-year-old woman from Eskilstuna, Sweden. I am currently studying information design at the university, and my major is non-fictional writing, with emphasis on informative and technical writing. During the course of the education, there has been real-life projects where I have gotten to write different kinds of texts for various companies and suchlike. Sometimes a project has involved translation work, and I have a few examples of Swedish-to-English translations that I have made in my portfolio.
I worked as a translator for PLAN Sweden, which is part of PLAN International, for two years. I translated letters that sponsor families had written from Swedish to English, and letters from the sponsored children from English to Swedish. I also have a habit of translating my own fictional works.
I believe that my experience in both translating between English and Swedish and in writing informative texts of different types would come in handy for this project. Knowing about techniques and tricks for writing technical and informative texts can be useful when translating such texts. I am a quick learner, so any term I am unfamiliar with I can look up and learn to use.
I would make a Swedish translation, then proofread it for typos and edit it so the text flows well. If there is anything you want to know, feel free to contact me.
Have a nice day, and thank you for considering me!
Best regards,
Pipeline Karlsson.
