No interference during your conversation, professional, precise, flexible, I can interpret both simultaneously and consecutively

I have 19 years of experience as a certified translator and 14 years as an interpreter in all sectors. In all these years, I have interpreted during interviews with a wide range of topics. My specializations include court interpreting, legal (criminal, family and personal injury), notarial and mental health. I also interpret during mediation interviews, for Youth Care, schools, health and safety services, UWV, municipalities and during staff interviews. I can be deployed in all cases. Not foreign to me are conversations in the event of death, physical injury and tragic themes. In very special circumstances it is useful to discuss this with me beforehand. During the Covid period I have mastered interpreting during videoconferences and telehearing.

I was born in Poland in 1973, I lived and studied there until 1995, since then the Netherlands has been my homeland. My mother tongue is Polish. I discovered interpreting during youth exchange programs and fell in love with it. It is very satisfying to help people during their conversation and to give them the assurance that everything will be well understood.
