About me
My passion is learning and staying open and curious, never settling on what I know but always expanding. This is why a degree in social work wasn't enough for me, and in pursuing a master's degree in education with a focus on childhood studies and children's rights, I also expanded my skillset in learning design, graphic design, production and my latest pursuit: reading therapy.
I love combining academia with creativity, making complex issues digestible and, most importantly, giving a voice to the unheard and shining the spotlight on the unseen by using the transformative power of education and the arts to instigate social change and empower marginalised communities.
I have a holistic approach to community transformation in Southern Africa and globally. My goal is always to foster positive change and empowerment with what I do, and feminist theories and ethics are at the core of my work. My diverse skill set and expertise are my very personal A-Team that I can gather and adapt depending on the project I'm working on. And I don't plan to stop here: there is always something new to learn in this ever-changing and evolving world of ours, new issues to tackle and new problems to solve.
I highly recommend Saskia as a translator as working with her is fast, flexible and produces great results. Translations can be tricky but her ability to grasp the feel, essence and context of the text while being very punctual and precise in her work has earned my trust.
