Nancy C. Schmeing
Though
she knows both Spanish and French, Nancy C.
Schmeings main focus over the past few
years has been translating documents from German
to her mother tongue, English. She has been
translating for three years with a local company
specializing in complex technology-related
materials. She has also been part of the
ProZ/KudoZ family of translators for over a year.
Growing
up in Columbia, South Carolina, USA, Nancy put
most of her efforts towards academics and became
a member of the National Honor Society, but still
made time for extracurricular activities, such as
Spanish Club. She attended the University of
South Carolina, and earned a Fulbright
scholarship. With that, she trotted across the
globe to Germany, where she went to Göttingen
University. There, she studied for studied for a
year, and met her future husband. Because of
this, even after returning to America and
attending the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT), she returned to Germany for
summers as well as 3 years of work, soaking up
the rich culture and language.
Since both were
physicists, when career opportunities opened up
at Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL)s
Chalk River Laboratories, the Schmeings moved to
nearby Deep River. While Hermann is still working
with AECL, Nancy now devotes all of her time and
energy to translating.
