Japanese-English Translator | Interpreter | Customer Support | Bilingual VA I am a Japanese-English bilingual professional with experience in translation, interpretation, customer communication, and IT support. I currently work as a Bridge System Engineer (BSE) for a Japanese company, where I support communication between Japanese and global teams. My responsibilities include Japanese-English interpretation during meetings, document and email translation, reviewing UI and technical content, and helping ensure that communication is clear, accurate, and culturally appropriate. I also lived in Japan for over 10 years, giving me a strong understanding of Japanese language, culture, and communication styles. My key strengths: * 🇯🇵 Japanese-English translation and interpretation * 💻 IT and technical support * 💬 Customer support via email, chat, and phone * 📱 App, website, and UI localization * 📝 Document, business, and technical translation * 🔍 Proofreading, quality checking, and terminology consistency * 🤝 Communication with Japanese clients and stakeholders * 📊 Data entry and administrative support * ⚡ Fast learner who can adapt to new tools, platforms, and SOPs I am detail-oriented, reliable, and comfortable working independently or as part of an international team. I focus on delivering natural, accurate Japanese and clear English communication rather than relying on word-for-word translation. I am always open to learning new tools and skills and am interested in building long-term working relationships with clients who value quality, reliability, and clear communication.

I am fluent in English, Japanese and Tagalog (Filipino). I do a lot of translation and content creation in those three languages. This is currently my field of specialization. I have translated everything from websites and mobile apps to technical documents, like patents and white papers. A great bulk of my work experience, however, lies in financial, legal and medical translation. I also do transcription and subtitling, and I am familiar with relevant software like Trados, Matecat, MarsEditor and Aegisub. I have recently moved to Thailand to study Thai, and I hope to add it to my skill set after a few years.

Complicated subjects do not have to be difficult to read. My specialty is taking savvy, technical concepts and making them accessible to readers who are not already experts in them... without dumbing the subject down. I work primarily in technical writing, article writing, content research, and scientific writing, covering subjects such as computer hardware, consumer electronics, artificial intelligence, aerospace, astronomy, and other areas where understanding the material matters just as much as writing about it. Sometimes that means digging through specifications, benchmarks, and technical documentation. Sometimes it means reading academic papers, fact-checking competing claims, or working directly from Japanese-language sources that may never reach an English-speaking audience. I also work directly with Japanese and English source material, including technical research, localization, and Japanese-to-English and English-to-Japanese translation. The goal is always the same: understand the subject first, then explain it clearly. My work includes technical and scientific explainers, research-heavy articles, long-form features, PC hardware and consumer-tech analysis, Japanese-source research, fact-checking, technical editing, and bilingual content. I also have extensive experience with SEO writing when search optimization is part of the assignment. If your project involves a subject that is difficult to understand, difficult to research, or difficult to explain without oversimplifying it, that is usually where I am most useful.
