    My good friend once complimented regarding my translation, saying: "your translated sentences turn out really nice even if I put it back on Google Translate. I mean, even better than if I were to take random but formal Japanese or English texts from the internet and do the same. How to say... your words flow smoothly, like crystal clear stream." He was a little poetic, but I think that's saying something about my skills. I am a bilingual translator of Japanese and English, offering more than 5 years of experience in writing and translating in business. I have lived overseas most of my life, native in both English and Japanese with high social skills. My translating experience includes anything related to... - Importing and exporting - Medical needles and syringes - ISO (specifically ISO:13485 and ISO:9001) - Business contracts such as quality agreement and purchase agreement - General e-mail and conversational material Since I have experience of foreign and Japanese cultures, I am confident my work skills exceed just simple word-to-word translation, and am able to read between lines and deliver something that is more heart-felt quality. I believe, when boiled down, that is what brings "good" translation for smooth communication; not something an automated translation can do. On the side note I absolutely love to play video games (so much love for SNES) and I can talk for hours about it. I also love music and I listen to basically anything from Rammstein to Venetian Snares to Great Big Sea. For more information please feel free to contact me. I am open to anything and will be more than happy to help you.

    As an Interpreter I am very enthusiastic about my role as it simultaneously removes the language barrier and allows a chance to remove the cultural barrier. My ethnic background allowed me to become very knowledgable and experienced with both Japanese and American culture in formal & informal circumstances. Which allows me to apply my cultural knowledge for a better reflection of the speaker's words. I appreciate colloquial terms, metaphors, humor in both languages and dedicated to providing an interpretation of colloquialism with an accurate cultural-reflection. The reason why I chose Interpretation/Translation as my career to make any international exchange a pleasant experience and to minimize any potential midunderstandings. I am especially excited to work in Japan to sharpen my language abilities and further explore Japan's rich business culture. I am currently employed at Universal Studios Japan LLC as a Personal Interpreter/Translator for the Safety Manager
