At Translated, I translated software UI, help-center, and e-commerce content, earning a 98.7% average quality score. I also reviewed peer translations and post-edited ModernMT output, cutting turnaround by 38% without losing accuracy.

At Welocalize, I post-edited Google and DeepL machine translations in Phrase TMS and reviewed work against client style guides. I authored a Tagalog MTPE pre-edit checklist that was adopted by nine linguists.

Across work for TransPerfect and Lionbridge, I translated and proofread legal, financial, marketing, and app content. I focus on natural English-to-Tagalog localization that follows KWF orthography, client glossaries, and brand voice.
