I have been passionate about languages since middle school. I have studied Japanese since that time, and I continue to learn more every day. Not only do I love the language, but I appreciate the culture as well, and I lived in Tokyo for several years. I also speak Japanese in my household as the main language.

In the past, I have worked at several companies where I have had the opportunity to translate as part of my job. I am now accepting freelance translation jobs, and I would love to help you with your Japanese-English translation!

I take pride in my precise attention to grammar and formatting.

I have worked as a contractor for TransPerfect since 2017.

I have completed the following college-level coursework in the field of translation:

•Thesis Translation Tutorial (Georgetown University):
Translated my senior research thesis on Foreign Talent in Japan into Japanese.

•Translation Theory and Practice (International Christian University):
Learned and applied concepts surrounding translation between English and Japanese. Focused on literature such as Tale of Genji and Flowers for Algernon.

•Translation in the Media (International Christian University):

•Business Japanese I and II (Georgetown University):
