Need certified English Vietnamese translation ready for court, hospital or USCIS?
Large scale is my strong suit. I take full end to end ownership of a complete website or software system, an entire book, or a whole educational and curriculum document set, and deliver every one with consistent terminology and on time.
📊 Proven on Upwork: $60K+ earned | 206 jobs | 2,006 hours | 5 star record | avg. 2 minute reply.

I help companies enter and grow in Vietnamese markets through localization, SEO/GEO, and practical AI-enabled content operations.
My core work is English-Vietnamese localization: translation, editing, MTPE, LQA, SEO keyword research, content optimization, UX/web copy, and Vietnamese market adaptation. I have worked with agencies and direct clients across SaaS, technology, tourism, insurance, education, games, biotechnology, and digital marketing.
I also build AI deployment and knowledge workflows for teams that want faster, more private, and more repeatable operations. This includes self-hosted agent environments, Obsidian knowledge systems, custom agent Skills, and local-first LLM workflows that support real business processes instead of staying as experiments.
What I can help with:
- English-Vietnamese translation, editing, proofreading, MTPE, localization QA, and content adaptation.
- Vietnamese SEO/GEO: keyword research, AI-search visibility, on-page recommendations, search intent mapping, and localized content briefs.
- Localization operations: glossaries, style guides, QA workflows, terminology systems, and repeatable content processes.
- AI deployment and enablement: Hermes Agent, OpenClaw gateway, private/local agent workspaces, and workflow automation.
- Knowledge systems: Obsidian vault architecture, documentation workflows, memory layers, and operational knowledge bases for agents and human teams.
- Custom AI Skills: authoring, testing, versioning, and maintaining agent Skills that turn general AI into domain-specific tooling.
I do not sell theory. I build usable systems and deliver clean language work. Every AI deployment is documented, every Skill is versioned, and every localization workflow is structured so it can be reused and improved.
Good fit if you need:
- A reliable Vietnamese localization partner with SEO/GEO experience
- Localized content that is clear, searchable, and culturally natural
- A private/local AI workspace connected to your existing knowledge base
- AI-assisted content, localization, or research workflows that your team can actually maintain
- A contractor who can combine language quality, search strategy, and practical automation
Based in Da Nang / Hoi An, Vietnam. Available for remote work and async collaboration across APAC, Australia, Europe, and US time zones.

I help global companies create Vietnamese content that sounds natural, trustworthy, and culturally accurate — not translated.
