I am a professional illustrator with the talent and skills to carry your concept to finished project with passion and dedication. My experience with various clients has made me a flexible artist open to outside- of the box and innovative ideas. I work mostly in traditional drawing and painting illustrations, however can do excellent digital work on Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. I have worked digitally, traditionally and in public art. One of my most exciting accomplishments was working on the first- ever fully painted, 80- minute feature film, called Loving Vincent, in Poland. I worked on the film with a team of international painter- animators to complete the last frames of the 64000+ frames of the film. It premiered in the United States in October 2017 and is now available on Netflix, and other platforms. I illustrate children's books of all kinds of styles in gouache, watercolor, pen and ink, pencil and mixed media. Some of the most recently published and award-winning books I have illustrated, are called "In the Nick of Time", "This is the Earth", "Like Rain Water" written by D. Cummings, "Little Tuckie", written by A. Tucker and "Dear Danger", a novel written by T. Lowe. Other titles I have illustrated are, "Rudolph the Longhaired Dachshund", "Mathimals", and various others. They are available in Print, on Makeawaymedia, Amazon, Barnes & Nobles and Google. In the public realm, I design and paint murals indoors as well as outdoors, stretching up to 24 feet long on buildings. These experiences make me an excellent team worker and independent artist to see projects through with hard work, reliability and innovation.

Hi there! I’m guessing you are here because you need help with a writing job. Oh, lucky day - because I think we’ll make a great team! Below is a list of tasks I can help you with. If you don’t find what you are looking for or have a very special project in mind, feel free to reach out and we can have a no-pressure chat about it. Copywriting I have a Master's Degree in Media Economics and have worked as a freelance marketing consultant and copy writer for the past two years. During that time, I have worked on various marketing and content projects for large corporations, tech start-ups as well as for small businesses - always fastidious to tailor the content to their unique requirements. I strongly believe that good copy writing is intertwined with excellent storytelling. See below for more information on my storytelling approach. Social Media No matter if you are starting from scratch, feel like you need to adjust your strategy to get the attention you deserve, or simply don’t feel like coming up with a post every day all by yourself – I’m here to help! I have worked as a Marketing Manager for a internatioal brokerage in the past and have vast experience creating compelling content and managing Social Media accounts. Storytelling is a crucial component of successful social media campaigns. It sets apart vibrant brands from faceless businesses and helps you create an enduring relationship with your customers. Translation As a native German speaker, I can help you translate your content from English into German and vice versa, while always conveying the original tone of your text. If needed, I will also help you localize and revise your content, Storytelling Ever since our ancestors gathered around a flickering fire to escape the cold outside the cave, stories were told. It really is the oldest form of human communication and therefor the most powerful one. AND: it’s applicable to any kind of content. Now, you might wonder if you even have a story to tell. Don’t worry, I promise you do! And we’ll work it out together. Storytelling doesn’t necessarily mean to follow the hero’s journey from setting out for adventure to returning with the all healing elixir, but rather shape your content in a from that readers can relate to and get emotionally invested in (and thus stay interested in you and your product).

I am a bilingual (German/English) German native, with a degree (Diploma) from Frankfurt University in Political Science, comparable to a Masters. Included in my studies was a lot of reading (materials in English and German) and writing (from essays to full dissertation). Throughout my career I have worked mostly in the Entertainment, Interactive Entertainment and the Music Industry, as a screenwriter, translator, editor, proofreader, creative writer and director of voice overs. In my role at 4-real Intermedia (a localization house for Interactive Entertainment products) I was involved in the full localization process from translation to conceptualization to proofreading to directing voice overs to final QA. I have been writing creatively for the past 25 years, for the past 10 as a screenwriter. I have detailed knowledge of story telling and work efficiently, thoroughly and precisely. I understand deadlines and consider myself a team player. I look forward to working on your projects and making them the best they can be.

My name is Jessica and although I was raised in Germany I am equally fluent in English. Prior to entering college the department head of the Linguistics department with New Mexico State University, who also taught German, allowed me to translate my German transcripts, and then signed off on it. My linguistics professor urged me to minor in German, as she believed it might benefit me someday. Thanks to her I gained valuable experience tutoring students, as well as translating and interpreting. I also had the pleasure of teaching one of my German friends English, as well as coaching several American friends in German.

Strong client orientation and accuracy are mandatory to me.
