"Your readers won’t even realize it was translated — they’ll simply feel like it was written just for them." You want to communicate clearly and confidently with your Japanese or English audience — without the risk of awkward phrasing or misunderstood intent. But many translations miss the mark. Whether it’s for technical documentation, marketing content, or live interpretation, even small errors can confuse your audience or dilute your brand’s message. That’s where I come in. I’m a native Japanese translator and interpreter fluent in English (TOEIC:Business English test 960/990), with over 300 completed projects. I’ve worked with brands like BlueStacks, Shokz, and Board Games Maker.com, helping them build stronger connections through culturally precise, audience-aware communication. I’ve also served as an interpreter for The Patient Story (200K+ subscribers) , supporting interviews with cancer survivors — a role that required deep empathy, sensitivity, and clarity. With a background in Mechanical Engineering and hands-on experience in LCD and mechanical design, I bring added expertise to technical translations — making even complex content feel clear and natural to your readers.

Hi everyone, The services that I offer as a freelancer include English to Japanese translations work. 【Translator】Japanese-English (CAT TOOL available) Over 10 years experience. I offer specialized English to Japanese translation services. I have extensive experience as a translator as I have worked in Japan offering translation services, both written and spoken. I am a native Japanese speaker, and fluent in English as a result of graduating from California University, and therefore understand both countries cultures, which I believe allows for a better and more accurate translation of nuances in phrases. My transcription services include a speedy turnaround, accurate typing and computer skills, proficiency in Japanese and grammar, and organization skills. I am able to customize transcriptions to meet the creative requirements of a wide variety of clients. Don't hesitate to contact me for any transcription project, big or small, on any topics: casual, interviews, music, DAW, AI, academic, financial, medical, or business etc. I look forward to hearing from you and using Upwork as a platform to extend my translating and transcribing skills to any individual or company that seeks this skill set.

Native Japanese speaker with professional-level English (TOEIC 825) and 14 years of experience handling official government documents in Japan — including family registers (koseki), residency records, and tax filings — now working as a Japanese-English translator specializing in official/legal documents and video subtitles. WHAT I SPECIALIZE IN - Official & civil documents: family registers, certificates, and government-issued paperwork, translated with attention to legal terminology and formatting accuracy (see portfolio for a full sample translation). - Video subtitles (.srt): natural-sounding English subtitles checked line-by-line against professional technical standards — max 2 lines per subtitle, reading speed (CPS), and on-screen timing — not just translated text, but subtitles that are actually usable (see portfolio for a QC-verified sample). - Web content & WordPress: I run and maintain my own WordPress site (deployed via Cloudflare), so I can also handle translation work that needs to be placed directly into a live website, not just delivered as a text file. BACKGROUND THAT SHAPES HOW I WORK - 14 years as a Japanese local government officer, across tax administration, resident/family registry affairs, and child welfare services — work that required precision with official documents, strict confidentiality with sensitive personal data, and hard deadlines. That discipline carries directly into translation work: accuracy first, on time, every time. - I currently run my own small business, so I understand professional accountability from the client side as well — clear communication and reliable delivery are non-negotiable for me. - Twice elected team captain (junior high and university basketball) — comfortable taking responsibility and communicating clearly under pressure. I'm building my track record here on Upwork, and I treat every project — large or small — with the same level of care I'd want as a client myself. Feel free to check my portfolio for real translation samples, and reach out if you'd like to discuss your project.
