Translation quality researcher at the University of Sydney evaluating meaning gaps and contextual accuracy in AI-generated English–Chinese mental-health translations.

At the University of Sydney, I analyse AI-generated English–Chinese public mental-health translations for meaning gaps, contextual accuracy and potentially stigmatising wording.

I compare baseline outputs with prompts that include extra information, then document source-anchored evaluations and examine translation choices through qualitative case analysis.

At China Daily, I wrote and edited English press releases from interview and filming materials, checking coherence and accuracy. At ByteDance, I supported product operations for European and American markets, coordinating international product review meetings and supporting process improvements.

I also teach Mandarin to learners with varied proficiency levels, adapting materials and practical communication activities to their needs. My background includes translation and interpreting studies and professional English editing.
