Literary translator and proofreader currently living in the Netherlands. I have worked as a translator since October 2015 and have specialised in literary translation since 2018, worked with a number of publishers and literary festivals in the Netherlands as part of my work. I also have academic writing experience with history, linguistic and literary/translation theory texts thanks to modules covered in my BA and MA.
10+ years as a scientific and technical translator!
I'm Kris Thielemans, a bilingual translator with more than 20 years experience translating, localising, editing, and writing in English and Dutch (Flemish). Due to my background as an MA in philosophy and art history, I've specialised in the translation of academic work in the humanities and social sciences. I’ve also enjoyed writing and translating for artists and art projects, and about games and gaming. My favourite literary genres are fantasy and science fiction.
25 years experience translating technical material. I have a degree in Mathematics and Computer Studies as well as language-related degrees.
