    Hi! I'm new at freelancing, so I hope my lack of experience here will not become a negative point for your consideration. I am a native Indonesian speaker, with standard Indonesian vocabularies. Although, I learnt English UK from a very young age, I have got to use English US interchangeably in my personal work. I have done many informal works for transcription, translation, editing, and proofreading for both Indonesian and English (UK and US). Most of my previous works were technical reports and academic papers, but I also have experience with essays, cover letters, and meeting minutes. I also have taught conversational English to ESL students for both adults and children. I used to work in a family-managed engineering consultant. During my time there, besides my engineering tasks I was also trusted as the project administrator for several projects we handled. My responsibility ranged from proposal and report formatting and proofreading, data-entry, and presentation. I'm currently a PhD Student and I am a part of my university's open courseware division. My responsibilities so far have been reviewing and editing course content, course design (e.g. presentation content, lecture scripts, etc.), transcript, and closed caption/subtitle timings. I was also featured in several promotional videos and Japanese to English dub.

    This is a freelance translation and interpretation service. The currently available languages are Japanese, English and German. My native language is German, I was born in 1985 in GDR. I hold an M.A. as specialist translator for English as well as in Japanese studies. I am not a sworn translator though. Please ask the public office receiving the translation, if a sworn translator (concerning Apostille etc.) must do the translation, or a translator holding a degree in translation is fine, too. You will receive the PDF of my M.A. certificate to hand it in along with the translation. In many cases, this will be enough. So far, I mainly translated personal documents for visa applications, degrees, invoices and estimates in the medical field as well as content related to the Japanese national sport Sumo and other tourism-related matters. (I translate content of the Japanese Sumo Association’s website since 2015.) Since 2012, I have helped newcomers to Japan setting up their lives here, accompany foreigners to hospitals and interpret during business meetings as well as conferences. I am very good at translating and adjusting lyrics of songs, since I write music too. My specialty is making the translation look very similar to the original by using graphic programs and proper formatting with an eye for details. I manage three websites and multiple social media accounts as well as large groups and have over ten years of experience in brand building as well as content creation.
