Localization/Project Management
Berlin

Summary

With a BA in Social Communication with a major in Journalism and over two decades of experience in multilingual and multicultural work environments, I have developed a versatile skill set that spans localization, project management, and international relations. My recent job as a Localization Specialist helped me build deep expertise in UX/product localization, SEM/keyword strategy, quality assurance, and coordination of freelancers. Earlier in my career, I built a strong foundation in client-facing and communication roles, working as a Sales/Key Account Manager in Germany and as Public Relations and International Relations Specialist in Brazil. These roles enhanced my strengths in relationship-building, cross-functional coordination, and multilingual communication.
