    Hi, thanks for having a look at my Upwork profile. I am a Japanese translator. I have a BA in Japanese and Asian Languages and Culture, with a minor in History from the University of Washington. I graduated magna cum laude with departmental honors in Japanese. In the course of my degree I completed work drawing on Japanese sources and work in translation of both modern Japanese and Classical Japanese in a variety of genres. In addition to cultural and historical knowledge of Japan and Asia, my hobby as a programmer means I have technical knowledge as well. I am familiar with genres such as technical documentation in Japanese and English. As well as tools for working with translations such as gettext. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you are interested in any of my services.
