Bio

With more than 10 years of bringing the linguistic domains of Czech and English closer to each other and facilitating understanding between them, I am intent on providing high-quality translations, copies as well as original content, while tirelessly working hard to perfect my language skills, developing a keener eye for detail and exploring new technologies to deliver only the best to my clients.

I provide expert localization, transcreation as well as regular & literary translation services with major focus on e-commerce, fine art, architecture, music, film, law, literature, media, PR and IT. These days, I tend to focus more and more on the translation of audiovisual content (films, series, trailers, commercials) in the form of subtitles.

Books I translated or co-translated from English to Czech:


  • Alfred Brendel: Hudba, smysl a nesmysl (Volvox Globator, 2016)
  • Alfred Brendel: Klavíristova abeceda (Volvox Globator, 2018)
  • John Cage: Vybrané dopisy (Volvox Globator, 2019)
  • Raymond Murray Schafer: Nová zvuková krajina (Agosto Foundation, 2020)
  • Elijah Wald: Dylan se dal na elektriku! Newport, Seeger, Dylan a noc, která rozdělila 60. léta minulého století (Volvox Globator, 2021)

Academic publications featuring my translations (English to Czech & Czech to English):


  • Supernova: Katalog Ateliéru supermédií (Published by UMPRUM in 2019)
  • Steel Cities: The Architecture of Logistics in Central and Eastern Europe (published by VI PER & Park Books in 2019)
