What I'm looking for

I'm looking for international Japanese-English translation and localization projects where I can deliver accurate, culturally relevant multilingual content, uphold editorial standards, and collaborate remotely with global teams.

I translate and localize Japanese-English business, legal, technical, educational, medical, and marketing content for international clients. As a freelance Senior Japanese Translator and Localization Specialist, I deliver publication-ready documents, websites, software interfaces, product documentation, and digital marketing materials while protecting cultural nuance, terminology, and brand voice.

At Alconost, I reviewed Japanese translations for websites, mobile applications, and digital products, correcting localization issues that affected usability, readability, and user experience. I worked with distributed localization teams to uphold client style guides, terminology databases, and multilingual publishing standards.

I also bring editorial review, LQA, translation memory management, terminology research, transcription, subtitling, and multilingual content editing experience. I’m comfortable managing high-volume assignments under tight deadlines and collaborating remotely with international project managers and editorial teams.
