Bio

Born and bred in the UK, with a father with US citizenship, I am a native English speaker with excellent proficiency in both variants. Before and after graduating with a degree in linguistics and computing, I spent several years living in Dutch-speaking countries; this was invaluable for my Dutch language skills and gave me an essential insight into understanding the underlying cultures and customs so often required in the provision of quality translations.

I always research the subject matter I am working on thoroughly, and seek external expert advice when necessary, to ensure my translations are accurate and high in quality, using the correct terminology in an appropriate style.

My interests reflect my areas of expertise. I am passionate about language and its use, both as an art form and as a means of communication. I enjoy learning about new language technology and ways in which to use it, and have several years’ experience in this field. I follow the advancement of effective technology and knowledge closely.

I have worked in many varied industries including: IT, language technology, engineering, telecoms, farming, airport security, customer service, catering, charity fundraising, etc. I believe this has given me good general knowledge and a better appreciation of many different subjects.

When I am not working I enjoy spending time in the countryside and regularly participate in lots of endurance sports and other activities: yoga, (trail and ultra marathon) running, (outdoor) swimming, (iron distance) triathlon, mountain climbing, mountain biking and snowboarding.

All this overlaps somewhat with my interest in nature, nutrition, health, fitness, physiology and the psychology of human endurance.
