900+ hours and $40K+ earned on Upwork. 15+ years working across NGOs, multinational companies, and government-linked work. If you need Vietnamese ↔ English translation that actually reads naturally, you're in the right place. WHAT I SPECIALISE IN → Tourism & hospitality — hotel and resort websites, guest communications, booking platform content, travel guides → Business & legal — contracts, MOUs, corporate filings, official correspondence → Tech & software — website copy, app UI strings, product descriptions, SaaS content → AI output post-editing — I review and fix machine-translated content so it reads like a human wrote it → Transcription & subtitling — English/Vietnamese audio, video captions, and subtitles → Market research — supporting foreign companies doing business research in Vietnam BACKGROUND I've worked as a translator and interpreter since 2010 for NGOs, and foreign companies from Canada, Hungary, Japan, and beyond. I also worked as a Trade & Investment Officer supporting Hungarian businesses entering the Vietnamese market, which means I understand the business context behind documents, not just the words. I hold a bilingual university degree in International Studies (all specialised courses in English), and I also run two boutique homestays in Hanoi's Old Quarter, so when it comes to tourism and hospitality content, I know the industry from the inside. WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE ME OVER AI AI translation is fast and cheap and often wrong in ways that aren't obvious unless you know both languages and both cultures. I catch those mistakes. I understand regional tone differences, the formality registers Vietnamese audiences expect, and the specific terminology used in tourism, legal, and tech contexts. I also use AI tools myself to work faster, so you get the speed benefits without the quality risks. WORKING WITH ME → Fast turnaround: typically 2,000–2,500 words/day for standard projects → Clean delivery: formatted, ready-to-use documents → Responsive: clear communication throughout → Available for one-off projects and ongoing retainer arrangements Let's talk about your project.
