Julia R.
Native Dutch & English Translator | Subtitling | MTPE | Transcription
I'm a native speaker of both Dutch and English, which gives me an instinctive feel for tone, register and cultural nuance in both languages. My clients have included the BBC and Vice. My background spans accessibility captioning and subtitling for broadcast, Dutch–English translation for film, MTPE and website localisation, and transcription for documentary and corporate content. I'm comfortable working across media, technology and marketing content and have a solid understanding of professional production workflows. What I bring beyond language accuracy is a strong sensitivity to tone and nuance, and a deep understanding of cultural context that literal translation alone doesn't capture. My focus is always on making the text feel natural and on-brand — not just linguistically correct. I work with a range of professional tools including Trint, Sonix, Happy Scribe, InqScribe and Caption Hub, and am comfortable working directly in CMS platforms. I'm detail-oriented, highly organised and deliver work that is carefully considered and thoroughly checked. Clear communication and timely delivery are central to how I work.
