About me

Specialised in legal and financial texts, including accounting, auditing, company annual reports and financial statements, taxation, IT, banking, insurance, economics, employee benefits, real estate, litigation, contracts and articles of association.

I have 18 years' hands-on experience in accounting and auditing in industry, in three different countries, to back my subject knowledge in translation.

English-speaking professional of Dutch parentage.

I spent 16 years as a staff translator with the Dutch practice of one of the Big Four (4,800 staff) and met their uncompromising standards effortlessly. My ten years as a freelance have only honed and widened those skills even further.

My work at this Big Four firm covered its Dutch into English translation requirements in the Accounting, Advisory, Auditing, Tax, Consulting, Legal and Corporate Finance fields.

I have been a fully qualified member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting, London, since 1992, and of the Dutch Society of Interpreters and Translators (NGTV) since 1987. I am a sworn/certified (beëdigd) translator in accordance with the new Dutch legislation that entered into force on 1 January 2009. For confirmation please visit: http://www.bureaubtv.nl.

I have been working for many years for a large number of leading agencies in the Netherlands and elsewhere, as well as for a number of prestigious direct clients. I also have several published translations to my name in the field of accounting and EU banking regulations.
