Hi! I'm Stefanie

🌍 Life in Translation:

My Journey Across Cultures

Discover how my passion for languages and cultures shapes every translation I deliver.

Hello everyone! I’m Stefanie, a certified and sworn translator and lifelong language enthusiast with a deep-rooted passion for languages and cultures. Born and raised in the south of Germany, I now call Cork, Ireland my home—the beautiful Emerald Isle that offers me a fresh cultural perspective every day.
In my free time, I recharge my batteries by spending time in nature—whether it’s hiking through the lush Irish countryside or taking invigorating swims in the wild Atlantic. These moments ground me and remind me how lucky we are to live on such a diverse and beautiful planet.

✈️ Living Abroad, Learning for Life

I’ve had the pleasure of living and studying in beautiful Barcelona, sunny Seville, and multicoloured Mexico—experiences that have deeply shaped my understanding of language and culture. Over the years, fluency in English and Spanish has become second nature—a rewarding result of immersing myself in different ways of life. These intercultural experiences not only enriched my worldview but also shaped the way I approach communication and expression.

🗣️ Trilingual with a Cultural Edge
Becoming fluent in three languages has been one of the most valuable outcomes of my international journey. It’s a skill that goes beyond vocabulary—it's about understanding context, tone, and cultural nuance. My clients now benefit from this blend of linguistic precision and cross-cultural insight, which allows me to deliver certified translations that go beyond the literal and truly connect with their intended audiences.

💬 A Childhood Dream Turned Profession
From a young age, I’ve been fascinated by how language shapes our thoughts and connects us across borders. As a polyglot, it was always my dream to engage with people from around the globe, understand their unique perspectives, and help them bridge linguistic gaps. Becoming a certified and sworn translator has made that dream a reality—I now get to work with clients from all walks of life, and each project is a window into another world.

🎓 Professionally Trained, Officially Sworn
Through my training at the prestigious FIM Munich Foreign Language Institute, and as a publicly appointed and sworn translator for English before the Munich Regional Court I, I deliver certified translations that combine linguistic precision with legal reliability. My background ensures top-tier quality, cultural accuracy, and full compliance with official standards. As a member of the BDÜ (Germany’s largest association of professional translators and interpreters), I stay up to date with industry standards to ensure the highest quality service for my clients.

🤝 A Global Perspective, A Personal Touch
What excites me most about my work is the opportunity to interact with people from around the world. My unique background as a native German speaker living in an English-speaking country gives me a broad cultural lens and a deep appreciation for diversity. This allows me to empathise with clients from many different backgrounds and support their personal and professional goals—whether in Germany, Ireland, Europe, or beyond.

💛 Communication with Heart
With my background as an alternative medicine practitioner in the field of psychotherapy (“Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapy”, HeilprG), I approach language not just as a tool, but as a powerful medium that can impact how we feel, relate, and succeed. I bring empathy and care into every project, always mindful of how words shape experience on both a personal and professional level.
