What I'm looking for

I seek a role in the tourism industry that values cultural diversity and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in tourism and hospitality, enriched by my experiences as a military wife. Having traveled extensively across Australia, China, the US, and Europe, I have developed a deep appreciation for diverse cultures and languages. My journey began in high school in Victoria, Australia, and has evolved into a fulfilling career in the tourism industry.

With an Associate's degree in Tourism and Hospitality from JTB Travel and Hotel College, I have honed my skills as a Tour Operator and Freelance Japanese Translator. My experience includes managing travel arrangements, booking accommodations, and collaborating with local vendors to create memorable experiences for clients. I have successfully translated content for various YouTube channels and clients, showcasing my fluency in both Japanese and English.
