Originally from the UK, I have lived and worked in the Netherlands for two decades. As a freelance editor and translator, I have worked on dozens of books.

 

I have a first class MA in History from Cambridge, and an MPhil and a DPhil in International Relations from Oxford. I also have a Postgraduate Certificate in the Principles and Practice of Translation from City University, London.

 

I'm currently in my final year of studying Fine Art at Wackers Academie in Amsterdam.
