Her research is focused on literary translations and translation history, and she is particularly interested in the impact of translation on marginalised groups, including the queer and disabled communities. She is the author of Queering Translation History: Shakespeare’s Sonnets in Czech and Slovak Transformations and the co-author of The Routledge Handbook of Translation and Health and The Global Crisis in Memory: Populism, Decolonisation and How We Remember in the Twenty-First Century.

She received her MSc and her PhD in Translation studies from the University of Edinburgh and subsequently worked for The Open University and Liverpool University, where she oversaw the outputs of the Arts and Humanities Research Council. She was most recently employed by the University of Vienna as a research fellow funded by Marie Skłodowska-Curie COFUND. She joined Constantine the Philosopher University in September 2023 as a lecturer in Translation Studies.

Her work focuses on translations to and from English and German, and she is also fluent in Japanese. She works as a professional translator in marketing and fashion, and previously worked on several academic translations focusing on art history.
