Experience
I am a Freelance Translator
and Editor located in Houston, Texas, and have been doing translation, editing,
and proofreading as a freelancer since 2003. English is my native language.
Before I became a Freelance Translator, I worked in the automotive
manufacturing industry, where I managed projects, did translation and
interpreting, and gained valuable insight into the automotive industry,
Japanese business culture, and many technical subjects.
I specialize in
Japanese>English translation and English editing. Please click on my resume
