Bio


Personal summary

  • I was born and educated in England, gaining a Bachelor’s degree in Biology. I then moved to the Netherlands where I lived for the next 30 years.
  • In the Netherlands I took various jobs while studying at Nijmegen University, acquiring Dutch along the way. Once fluent in the language I started translating Dutch to English. I now have a thorough knowledge of the Dutch language, its people and culture. This enables me to understand in depth a wide range of source texts and to convert them into accurate, clear, concise and readable translations.
  • I returned to the UK in 2009 where I continue to work as a translator.
