As a technical and financial translator with 18 years of proven experience, and as a budding literary translator (recent graduate of the Dutch literary translation academy Vertalersvakschool), I offer a dependable, knowledge-based, and affordable translating service from French, English, German, Spanish, and Mandarin into (Belgian) Dutch.

In the past 30 years, I have been living in 5 countries using 5 working languages on
a daily basis, ensuring a profound cultural knowledge of all my source languages...

Before starting as a translator, I built a successful career in the real estate industry in
Spain, communicating with international customers in Spanish, English, French, German and Dutch. Previously, I spent one year in Germany and one year in China, working respectively in the banking and in the food & beverage industry. From 1994 until 1995, I worked in Belgium as an in-house translator Chinese / Dutch / English in the telecommunications industry. From 1988 until 1994, I lived in Taiwan, working in the import/export of consumer goods, and communicating in Chinese on a daily basis.
