I enjoy supporting international clients and helping their plans and projects run smoothly. Living and working in Vancouver taught me a lot about different cultures and communication styles. I support global clients online (and in person when possible), making sure everything is taken care of and everyone feels supported. I've also worked as a medical JP⇄EN interpreter, translator, AI trainer, and blog writer. I'm always open to interesting projects. Finding solutions and creating positive experiences for people is what makes my day.

Hello! My name is Satoko and I am a Japanese national who is currently living in Toronto, Canada. Due to my unique upbringing of living equal parts of my life in Japan and English-speaking countries, I am fluent in both Japanese and English and able to understand the subtle nuances and cultures behind both languages. I have a multitude of experience in both Japanese to English and English to Japanese translations. My past projects on Upwork have been in various fields, such as academic, business, and poetry, and I ensure I complete all projects with the utmost care and attention to detail. As for my educational background, I graduated from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor's degree in History and Philosophy. I also have professional experience working as a project manager, at a company that required proficiency in both English and Japanese. I am excited to take on any projects, small or large. Please feel free to get in touch with me if you have any projects you'd like translated, or if you have any general questions.

I am a Canadian citizen, offering Japanese to English translations as well as transcription work. I specialize in Japanese to English translation services. Having spent my childhood and teenage years in Japan, I am in a unique position of understanding both Japanese and Canadian culture, which I believe allows for a better and more accurate translation of nuances in phrases. My experience in Japanese to English translation includes business documents, powerpoint presentations, Japanese audio to English text, and Japanese novellas. My transcription services include a speedy turn around, accurate typing and computer skills, proficiency in English grammar, and organization skills. I am able to customize transcriptions to meet the creative requirements of a wide variety of clients, covering an array of topics: casual, interviews, academic, financial, medical or business. I look forward to hearing from you, and using UpWork as a platform to extend my translating and transcribing skills to any individual or company that seeks this skill set.
