Growing up in a rural area in the United States, I was fascinated by faraway places and foreign languages from an early age. I began learning German in my free time as a teenager and spent my 11th grade year near Bielefeld as an exchange student. This positive experience led me to pursue my Bachelor’s degree in German and Linguistics at the University of Georgia and embark on another year abroad in Heidelberg.
As people are wont to do, I fell in love with Heidelberg and returned for my Master’s degree in Translation. I joined the exact! team after completing my degree and have been happily translating ever since.
