Translates from Norwegian into English

I translate from Norwegian and Swedish, primarily literary fiction and narrative non-fiction. My work has twice been longlisted for the International Booker Prize, as well as winning the Oxford-Weidenfeld Prize and being shortlisted for the Bernard Shaw Prize and the Warwick Prize for Women in Translation. After several years working in publishing in the UK, I have been a full-time literary translator since 2022.
