Bio

A driven Media & Culture graduate specialized in literature and theatre, with a lifelong love for languages and 4 years of experience in editing and proofreading Dutch magazines. 


My Bachelor in Media & Culture included writing assignments and theses in Dutch in various styles, such as a Bachelor End Project consisting of 5000 words about new developments in American Musical Theatre. On top of that, I also chose to take numerous courses from the English Bachelor curriculum, including English-Dutch translation courses and Translation Theory.

I am currently studying for a Master's Degree in Literary Translation at Utrecht University, and working regularly on jobs for various clients. For example, I transcribed a few hours of Dutch audio for Lingual Consultancy, and I wrote the English surtitles for Fun Home the musical in Amsterdam.  

I love language very much, and I love to write creative and formal texts in Dutch. If your English texts needs to be professionally translated into Dutch, I am more than willing to help!
