Bio

Thank you for viewing my profile!

My background as an English language professor, along with 3 years of professional, full-time translation experience in academic research, marketing copy, and product descriptions, make me unique as a language professional. If your Japanese to English translation needs include:

  • Product descriptions or manuals
  • Web development documents or website localization
  • Academic research for publication

…or other documents related to research, IT, or marketing, please reach out to me. I provide quick turnaround with exceptional attention to detail and naturalness in communicating your message from Japanese to English.  

In addition, I provide detail-oriented copyediting and proofreading.  My writing has been published in the Journal of the Pan-Pacific Association of Applied Linguistics and the Asian Journal of English Language Teaching.
