German,
English, Spanish and French language translator Board Member of Community
Empowerment Collective Society
|
.Profile.
| I
was born and raised in West Germany, but my love of travel and meeting
people from different cultures brought me to Canada. I studied French and
Spanish in Calgary with the intent to teach or work as a translator. |
...
...
| After a summer in Guatemala with
its complexities and contradictions, I decided to go on to development
studies. I returned to Central America many more times as a volunteer,
student, and professional, while also learning more about other regions
of the world and various development issues. |
.
| I have worked on a range of issues
related to peace building, participatory approaches to natural resource
management, and public health. |
...
..
| Meanwhile, my new family took me
on a very different journey, learning about baby care and preschooler-
entertainment, patience and human nature. |
...
| Being somewhat less mobile, I have
focused more on languages and translations again and was happy to find
Phil’s Community Empowerment site, which allows me to do translations
relating to development issues. |
