About me
Hi! I'm a Japanese and English translator with a business, media, and music background. I worked for 3 years at a foreign-owned company in Malaysia, handling social media content and video translation. Before that, I was in the copyright team at a Japanese music publisher, where I gained expertise in formal Japanese business communication.
Areas of Expertise ■ Business ■ Media & Social Media ■ Music ■Video translation (only from Japanese to English)
Other Creative Work In addition to translation, I also create illustrations centred around food and drinks. My illustrations are characterised by bold outlines and soft digital watercolour shading, creating a unique balance between cuteness and clarity. They are particularly known for their sense of transparency and lightness.
