I bridge Japanese-English communication through translation, interpretation, research, and operational support.
What I'm looking for
At Yorozu Automotive Tennessee, I bridged cultural gaps through Japanese-English translation and consecutive interpretation for virtual and in-person conversations.
I independently supported Japanese expats, translated documents, and brought clear written communication and project support to day-to-day operations.
My background includes visitor services at Discovery Center at Murfree Spring, teaching as an adjunct professor, and graduate research roles at MTSU and Rutherford County Archives. I hold a Master in Public History focused on Archives/Archival Administration, alongside degrees in Japanese and Global Studies.
