About me

I worked as a Dutch lawyer (in the Netherlands) for over 6 years and for a summer with a highly-regarded New York law firm. During that time I drafted many Dutch and English documents, varying from simple letters to complicated contracts. During my time at McDonald’s Nederland, I had near daily written communications with my superiors in the UK and US and additionally translated many corporate and legal documents on a weekly basis from Dutch to English for their review and comment and then vice-versa into the final. Currently, I am working as a freelance translator. I am reliable and provide accurate translations. I am able to bridge the gap between the English and Dutch language, especially in regard to general, legal and corporate documents.
