My name is Daniel Šebesta. I mostly live in Prague, Czech Republic. I am a linguist with an academic background in Czech and German linguistics. I work as an English-to-Czech and German-to-Czech translator specialized in marketing, IT, and renewables. I am a member of the American Translators Association (ATA), the Czech Union of Interpreters and Translators (JTP), the Modern Language Association, and ProZ.com. I have co-authored several printed dictionaries and lectured and written about typography and punctuation.
