About

Hey, you found me!

I'm Jackson, and I have a year of experience working as an independent transcriber. When I'm not busy captioning content, I like to write my own original work on the side. My favorite topics include hobbies such as tabletop gaming analysis and other common topics people tend to deride as nerdy. I have a B.A. in German from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and have worked extensively with linguistics (and a focus on phonetics) of both Germanic and non-Germanic languages.My favorite project was probably transcribing and translating a series of letters written by a German-speaking Union soldier during the Civil War to his family in Illinois.

I have experience with deciphering Sütterlinschrift (commonly known as the "Gothic alphabet") and considerable experience with research and content creation in both German and English. When it comes to transcribing I've been called things like "blisteringly fast" and "a natural" by both my peers and instructors. I have written on a variety of topics with a particular focus on German history. Content ranges from the societal problems of the Weimar Republik to classic and beloved cuisine and games.
