Joop is a very dedicated professional. As a Project Manager he was a very valuable part of the team: Organized, customer oriented and always full of new ideas, he is always commited to to make processes work better. In addition to this high professional value, he is intelligent, shows a high level of integrity and has a great sense of humor. I wouldn’t doubt to work with him again in a minute!

Joop is a phenomenal writer and translator with whom I had the pleasure of working for several years. He lives and breathes language, evident in the creative, detailed texts he writes and translates. Joop has a particular gift for explaining complex and technical concepts in clear and comprehensible language. Joop is intelligent and savvy, and has a great sense of humour. I would highly recommend him for any copywriting, editing or translation work.
