Biographical: Although I specialise in the translation of environmental science related texts as a result of my training, I have a broad interest and translate texts in a variety of subjects and fields. I am conscientious and enjoy learning. Because I take pride in delivering quality translations, I always check my translations thoroughly before sending them off! My excellent Dutch language skills are a result of 25 years of living in the Netherlands where I enjoyed a quality education. I keep up my knowledge of the evolving Dutch language by regular and extended visits to the Netherlands, frequent communication and reading a wide variety of Dutch material. My thorough command of the English language deepened during years of study in several English-speaking countries. In 1995 I moved to Australia. Since then I have worked for the government and its main scientific research organisation and published several journal articles. I briefly worked as an editor on a national project on water use modelling while at CSIRO. I have also spent some time assisting the Dutch Embassy, using both my language skills and my friendly and professional manner with clients.
