Hanne Slåtten Woldeck , Storvorde, Denmark

Education and work experience
My name is Hanne Woldeck, I am 38 years old and I come from Norway. I work as a freelance translator, and I have six years of experience of writing and translating texts from German, Danish, Swedish and English into Norwegian. I am also familiar with MTPE from my work as a translator.
From 2001-2007 I lived and worked in Germany, where I learned to speak German fluently. From 2011-2014 I studied German at the University of Aalborg, Denmark. I have a Bachelor degree in German and IT/communication. Since 2009 I have lived in Denmark, and I write and speak Danish fluently.
I consider myself to be patient, curious about new situations and challenges, outgoing, positive and adaptable. I`m always interested in learning new things and to develop within my profession, and I always try to learn from the past because I strive to improve myself as a translator, as well as to always be up to date in terms of the latest developments in the industry. I appreciate meeting new people, travelling to other countries and learning about other cultures.
In my spare time I work as a volunteer at an animal shelter close to my home. I enjoy this work because I`m very fond of animals. I also enjoy hiking in nature, to paint, socialize with friends and family and working as a volunteer for the humanitarian aid organizations Mushemba Foundation and Red Cross. Through the Mushemba Foundation I have a sponsored child in Tanzania - a 14 year old girl named Judith.

My main language combinations are German-Norwegian, English-Norwegian and Danish-Norwegian, but I also have long experience with translating Swedish into Norwegian.
I have several years of experience with the CAT-tools SDL Trados Studio, Memsource and memoQ, and I use these tools almost daily in my work as a freelance translator.
I translate between the following languages:
German
Danish
