Hi! I’m a passionate English-Japanese translator from Japan, currently living in the Netherlands. At 29, I’ve garnered 5 years in translation, backed by 7 years in tech and e-commerce.
My translation is more than a job; it's about bridging cultures. This passion drives me to capture subtle language details that machines often overlook.
Traveling is also a big part of who I am. Having visited about 40 countries, these experiences have widened my perspective, something I bring to every project. It’s about translating words and connecting worlds.
Here are some examples of formats and media that can translate:
・WordPress
・Shopify
・HTML/CSS
・Microsoft Office
・Google Workspace
・AI model improvement
I'm currently studying for a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at an online university and have a strong technical background. Usually, I can master tools that are new to me comparatively quickly with just a basic instruction.
While tech and e-commerce is my specialty, my enthusiasm extends to various fields. Whether it’s technology, marketing, or the arts, I bring the same energy and commitment.
I’m dedicated to using my language skills and cultural insights to deliver translations that not only speak to but also connect different cultures. It’s not just about translating content; it’s about creating bridges between people and places, one word at a time.
