I was born and raised in the Netherlands. Earned my bachelor's degree at the Groningen Conservatory. Upon completion of my bachelor's I was invited to study (master's degree) at Brigham Young University on a full tuition scholarship. I spent three years at BYU, where I earned my master's degree and taught several classes. Next, I moved to Boston, where I obtained my doctoral degree in music. I have written and translated several articles and publications in Dutch and English, and teach my children Dutch. I am fluent in Dutch and English and enjoy translating all kinds of materials. My doctoral thesis was published first in the United Stated. The translated document (translated by yours truly) was subsequently published in the Netherlands. |
