What I'm looking for

I seek a localization role where I can manage global vendor relationships, scale quality linguist pools, and lead cross-functional localization projects in a collaborative, process-driven environment.

I am a localization specialist with progressive experience managing translation projects, vendor pools, and resource databases across the video game, biopharmaceutical, and language-service sectors. I have advanced coordination and project-management experience placing top linguists, ensuring quality control, and maintaining strong client and supplier relationships.

Throughout roles at Keywords Studios, IQVIA, and Qwertyworks, I led localization operations from project coordinator to resource coordinator and manager, implemented CAT tool workflows, and supported cross-functional teams to localize products and clinical materials efficiently and accurately.
