Experienced freelance translator with many years' experience of the Dutch language. Full time translator since November 1998. Worked in logistics in the Netherlands for 5 years. Since 1998, worked on translation of numerous technical specifications, manuals for computer software and legal documents.
After a colourful variety of careers in logistics, podiatry and the (part-time) military, I finally settled down to become a full-time freelance translator in November 1998. Now I wonder why I did not adopt this career sooner. At least I can draw on wide experience for any job that is presented to me!
I mainly tend to deal with technical documents (civil or mechanical engineering, logistics etc.) and legal contracts, but on occasions I also translate articles concerning art, architecture and many other subjects. My clients will attest that I am always willing to go the extra mile and contribute any suggestions that I may feel appropriate. In Dutch terms: meedenken. Furthermore, deadlines are sacrosanct.
If you are looking for a veteran translator with broad experience of work and life, you have come to the right man.
The updates to the menu were made to make the site easy and more intuitive for visitors. Obviously, like any change, this may take a few days to get used to.
The dropdown menus have been divided into two-dimensional panels with similar items grouped together under headings. This eliminates scrolling for those with smaller screens, and also improves readability.
Mouseover your name at the top of the screen. Here you will find information about your account, your email settings, and more. The "My ProZ.com" menu was moved up here to simplify the main navigation, and to keep all of this type of information together.
