I bridge the gap between English and Chinese — in language, business, and trade. What I bring to the table: 5M+ words translated. 3 books. 5 websites localized. 10+ winning products sourced and verified. Whether you need a document translated, a product sourced from China, or a factory inspected before shipment, I deliver accurate, reliable results backed by 4+ years of hands-on experience across 12+ industries. I specialize in two areas that most freelancers treat separately: Language Services — English-Chinese translation, transcreation, subtitle work, interpreting (live, phone, or on-site), voiceover, and proofreading. I've translated news, business documents, marketing copy, and full-length books — always with cultural nuance, never word-for-word. China Sourcing & Quality Control — Product sourcing across Alibaba, 1688, Global Sources, Made in China, and Taobao. I handle factory audits, sample inspections, and pre-shipment checks so you don't get surprises when your container arrives. I also create Chinese language courses (3+ built so far), provide teaching and tutoring, and serve as a multilingual virtual assistant for businesses operating between China and the rest of the world. Why that combination matters: Most translators can't walk a factory floor. Most sourcing agents can't catch a contract mistranslation. I do both — which means fewer miscommunications, fewer middlemen, and fewer costly mistakes for your business. → Send me a message with your project details. I respond within a few hours and always start with a clear scope and timeline.
