Experienced translator, writer, and editor with a special interest in stories and perspectives outside the mainstream. Based in New York City.
I am a writer, editor, and literary translator working between Swedish and English. Born in Stockholm, Sweden, I have lived in Helsinki, Paris, and Montréal; New York City has been my home for more than a decade. I serve on the editorial board for Glänta, a Swedish magazine of arts and politics, and am an active member of SELTA, ALTA (where I am a two-time mentor in the Emerging Translators Mentorship Program), and the National Writers Union. I write on US issues in the Swedish press.
