I was born in France. I have been interested in the German language, which I learned as my first foreign language at school, from a very early age. So I decided to study German language and literature first, and then translation with law as a supplementary subject. When I applied for the position of translator, I was immediately taken with the German-French atmosphere in the office and the casual atmosphere in the office. I have been working and living in Cologne for over 10 years now and I can’t imagine living anywhere else.
