Native Cantonese speaker with fluent English, based in Melbourne, Australia. I create accurately timed SRT/VTT subtitles and clean, properly formatted transcripts — Cantonese to English, English to Cantonese, or same-language captions.
My subtitles are synced properly to speech, not machine-dumped timestamps, and my translations preserve tone and colloquial meaning — critical for Cantonese, where literal translation often fails. Transcripts come verbatim or clean-read, with speaker labels and consistent formatting, and every file is proofread against the original audio before delivery.
I'm currently completing an Education degree at Monash University, so precision with written language is my daily work. Also available for Cantonese/English document translation, interpreting, and language tutoring. My time zone covers both Australian and Hong Kong/Asia business hours, meaning fast turnaround and same-day communication for clients in either region.
Send me your audio or video and I'll confirm timeline and a fixed quote within a few ho
