Available to hire
I am a Scottish freelance writer based in Gothenburg, Sweden, with almost 15 years’ experience providing quality English language copy, Swedish-English translation, text editing, and English language voiceovers to various large organisations and leading agencies. Originally from Glasgow, I moved to Sweden in 2005 and quickly learned Swedish through study and work. I enjoy music, books, sport, and European culture.
Currently, I work full-time as Head Copywriter in Volvo Cars’ E-commerce team, writing English master copy for European markets and coordinating translation. Over the years, I have worked with clients such as Volvo Trucks, SKF, and Novacura, producing promotional materials, technical translations, and voiceovers.
