Japanese-English Translator & Liaison/Language Helper

* My rates are negotiable - depending on the nature and requirements of the project. I can offer translation and proofreading services that machines or tools cannot offer - by actively listening to clients and accommodating to their needs. Experienced in translating for a wide variety of industries - business, marketing/PR, retail, R&D, manufacturing, technologies/IT, travel & leisure, entertainment, education/ESL, arts & culture, food/restaurants, and more. Work with different types of clients, from individuals and small start-ups to large global corporations (e.g. Panasonic and Wynn Resorts & Casino) Successful in SEO-focused document/web localization as well as in assisting companies to launch Japan offices or enter the Japanese market.
