about Me

For 10 years after completing a Master of Science in Biology at the University of Fribourg I worked in biomedical research and as a project manager at Universities in California (UC Davis), Germany (UMG Goettingen) and Switzerland (UZH Zurich).  Since 2007, I serve as a scientific coordinator at the University Hospital in Zurich. In this capacity I edited a multitude of scientific publications, project proposals and other professional texts. In 2003 I was awarded the Certificate of Proficiency in English by the Cambridge University and in 2016 I completed an education as a copy editor (Lektor) at the higher technical school for language proficiency (Höhere Fachschule für Sprachberufe, SAL, Zurich).
