Maria is a professional translator since 2008. She attended a German School, after which she graduated in Artistic Studies and then completed her master’s degree in Translation with a thesis on Malcolm Lowry.
She has worked as an in-house translator/proof-reader at a translation agency before realizing that she needed time and space to explore other subjects that naturally appealed to her. She has therefore invested in two simultaneous specialty fields: EU-politics on the one hand (which actually covers a wide range of fields), and arts&culture on the other hand.
