What I'm looking for

I seek translation, copywriting and proofreading roles in science/technology organisations where research-led writing, accuracy and clear stakeholder communication are valued.

I am a Dutch-to-English translator and copywriter with a strong science and technology focus, co-owning CPLS since 2018 and delivering translation, copywriting, proofreading and conference reporting for institutions such as TU/e, TNO, ITEA, Foodvalley and Inside Industry Association. I produced the majority of a 15,000-word stakeholder impact assessment for the ECSEL JU funding mechanism and regularly turn technical material into clear, audience-appropriate copy.

I hold a Master’s degree (Cum Laude) in Gender Studies and a First Class Bachelor’s in History, and I combine rigorous research, interview-led reporting and teaching experience to produce accurate, well-structured texts. I am committed to precise translation, careful editing and pragmatic communication that helps technical organisations reach diverse audiences.
