What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can combine multilingual translation and media expertise with operational coordination—handling communications, research, and stakeholder workflows in a collaborative, detail-focused environment.

I build multilingual content and operations that translate cleanly across cultures. As a freelance translator and interpreter, I deliver written translation and on-site interpretation in Chinese, English, and Indonesian, and I’ve also translated and curated news, features, and bilingual video scripts in newsroom and media roles.

Most recently, I served as General Affairs Manager at PT. China Harbour Indonesia, managing expatriate administration, recruitment coordination, regulatory compliance, procurement, and workplace operations, and I was awarded Employee of the Year (2021). I bring a research-driven media background (news editing, market/competitor analysis, analytics-based decisions) alongside strong communication, event coordination, and content production—so teams get both clarity and momentum.
