Bilingual Japanese–English professional based in New Zealand, with 3,036 verified Upwork hours, 100% Job Success, and a Rising Talent badge across $40k+ of completed work. My strongest track record is bilingual research and contributor work delivered through Upwork Enterprises — four contracts totalling 2,314 hours, all rated 5.0, with the same client returning repeatedly. The work spanned Japanese-language data review, structured research, and quality assurance across finance, business, and economics domains. Alongside that, I have: — Xero bookkeeping & payroll for small businesses and crypto-native clients. Recent work includes Koinly transaction reviews, Xero catch-up and GST reconciliation, and payroll setup. I'm L2 Xero Certified Professional and a Xero Payroll Specialist (both Dec 2025). — AI-assisted web design and build for small businesses and solopreneurs. Hand-coded HTML/CSS sites with custom design — not template-based — built efficiently using Claude as a development partner. Recent work includes wellbeing practitioners, an artist portfolio, and a personal crypto product. — NZ-market research for international clients, including remittance research (two contracts) and FX exchange rate analysis — all rated 5.0 with detailed positive feedback. — AI/ML training and evaluation work in finance, business, and economics domains, contributing as a domain specialist on annotation and rating tasks. — Crypto & Web3 operations since October 2020 — agentic trading, node running, and crypto bookkeeping. I understand the workflows from the inside, not just the surface. How I work: I'm bilingual JP-EN (Japanese native, fluent English) and based in South Island, New Zealand. I use Claude and Claude Code as part of my workflow — for research synthesis, drafting, and building small tools — which means careful work delivered faster than it used to be possible to deliver. Certified in Claude Code 101, Claude Code in Action, and Claude Code Introduction to Subagents (2026). How I prefer to work: Async, written-first communication. I'm in NZST (UTC+12/+13), so live calls are possible but not my default — I do my best work when scope is clear upfront and I can deliver in focused blocks. Most of my Upwork Enterprises work was structured this way and the clients kept returning. Best fit: structured, defined-scope projects with clear deliverables. I'd rather scope a job clearly at the start than over-promise and rework later. Clients have repeatedly described my work as exceeding expectations and a pleasure to collaborate on (see reviews below). If your project sounds like a fit, send a message with the scope and I'll come back with a clear plan.
